does coroutines in Kotlin work like threads?
So I am trying to learn kotlin coroutines for networking purposes on Android but I don't understand how they work. What am I missing in the code to make it work like a thread (the two counters should mix together ) ? Should I use something else than runBlocking {} ?
import kotlinx.coroutines.*

suspend fun counter(a: Int) {
for(n in 0..a) {
print(n.toString() + " ")
}
}

fun main() {
runBlocking {
counter(10)
launch {
counter(10)
}...
