Why include a loop block within Thread.new in Ruby?

edit

A loop block within Thread.new in Ruby is used to run a block of code repeatedly in a separate thread. It is a common way to create a background task that runs concurrently with the main program. The loop block ensures that the code within it is executed repeatedly until a specific condition is met or the program is terminated. This allows the separate thread to continuously perform a specific task without blocking the main thread's execution.
