Threads are not a feature of the C language. In general, threads and their specific API are a feature of the OS.

  Threads have been a C language feature for over a decade now, starting with C11. (although C11's threads had arguable posix comatibility issues until fixed in c17).

    Yeah, but the latest edition of the K&R C book was 1988, predating C11 by a lot.
