Future<T> submit(Callable<T> c)
Today in next part of the series we will talk about submission of callable task via executor service.   As per JAVA version 6.0, ExecutorService Interface has following method - Future< T >  submit( callable c )  - Submits a Callable task for execution and returns a Future representing that task computation.
- Future< T > will return T on successful completion of the process, otherwise result will not be T.
Lets start with Callable task - As we  know that Callable<T> interface has following method - public T call() So  when we say - ExecutorService.submit(Callable Task) --> It starts a  new stack starting with call method of callable task, as call method can  return T so does future object. Due to this reason the signature of  submit(Callable c) is Future< T >. T --> means anything that extends Object.package com.jovialjava.blog.threads;
