Odd even number printing using thread

You’re waiting and notifying different objects (monitors).

The idea is that you can call obj.wait() to wait for someone to do obj.notify(), while you’re doing objA.wait() and objB.notify().

Change your printOdd method to something like

private void printOdd(int i) {
    synchronized (lock) {                        // <-------
        while (!oddTurn) {
            try {
                lock.wait();                     // <-------
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        System.out.println(type + i);
        oddTurn = false;
        lock.notifyAll();                        // <-------
    }
}

and the printEven method similarly.

Then provide the NumberPrinter with a lock object:

Object lock = new Object();
Thread odd = new Thread(new NumberPrinter("odd", lock));
Thread even = new Thread(new NumberPrinter("even", lock));

Output:

odd1
even2
odd3
even4
odd5
even6
odd7
even8
odd9
