What Is The Difference Between Wait() And Sleep() In Java?

As we know java programming language supports multi threading concept. The threads are running at the same time if you want to stop execution of a thread and give the control to another thread these two functions, are supported by java for the purpose

Wait() : This function takes parameters as milliseconds and puts the thread in wait state for the desired time of the programmer after time passes the execution starts again.

Sleep()  : This function is also used for same purpose using his function by java you can put a thread in sleep state .sleep does not contains any parameters so the thread will not be automatically start execution It needs a wake up signal again which can be Notify().or other function are also provided by java.
      
So the main difference in Wait() and sleep() is wait takes time parameter and wait for specific time only and sleep throws a thread in sleep mode for unspecified time.

Wait waits till the other process is completed or a revoke(not sure about the method's name) is called,while sleep sleeps for the specified amount of period.
