### Example

[](#example)

The following PHP code is a minimal example of one of the possibilities of this library.

```
(new \PCNTL\ThreadStart)->startAndWait(
    (new \PCNTL\ThreadCollection)
        ->add(new ExampleClass('Test 1'))
        ->add(new ExampleClass('Test 2'))
        ->add(new ExampleClass('Test 3'))
        ->add(new ExampleClass('Test 4'))
        ->add(new ExampleClass('Test 5'))
);
```

Running multiple threads (forks), output will look like:

```
Starting
Starting Test 1
Starting Test 2
Starting Test 3
Starting Test 5
Starting Test 4
Ended Test 1
Ended Test 3
Ended Test 5
Ended Test 2
Ended Test 4
Program is done.

```
