[Qt-interest] Multithreading - yield function

Usually people use threads not because they are "cool", but because there
are some requirements that can only be met using threads. Thread programming
has many pitfalls, is difficult to debug and may lead to applications that
behave different depending on the number of threads and cores.

I would like to recommend to use threads no earlier than when you understood
what they are and where the problems may arise. A pure sequential program or
subprocesses may be an alternative to consider.

Best Regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen
