In an interview question a guy was asked to "implementHow would one implement a threadpool"...threadpool? I've been reading on wikipedia for "threadpool" but I still can't figure out what one should a guy do to solve this question (possibly because I didn't quite understand what a threadpool is in simple terms).

Can someone explain me in plain english what a threadpool is and how would one answer this question?
