Runtime availableProcessors() in Java

availableProcessors(): This method is available in the java.lang.Runtime class of Java.

Syntax:

int java.lang.Runtime.availableProcessors()

This method returns the number of processors available to the Java virtual machine.

This value may change during a particular invocation of the virtual machine.

Parameters: NA

Returns: the maximum number of processors available to the virtual machine; never smaller than one.

Exceptions: NA

Approach

Java

package com.Runtime;

public class RuntimeavailableProcessors {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();

        System.out.println(runtime.availableProcessors());
    }
}

Output:

4
