In this Java tutorial, you'll learn how to schedule a task for execution after a specified delay using the `schedule` method of the `Timer` class.

The `Timer` class in Java allows you to schedule tasks for future execution in a background thread. With the `schedule` method, you can specify a `TimerTask` to be executed after a certain delay.

Here's how you can do it:

```java
import java.util.Timer;
import java.util.TimerTask;

public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Timer timer = new Timer();

TimerTask task = new TimerTask() {
@Override
public void run() {
// Your task logic goes here
System.out.println("Task executed after delay");
}
};

// Schedule the task to run after a delay of 2000 milliseconds (2 seconds)
timer.schedule(task, 2000);
}
}
```

In this example:
We create a `Timer` object.
We create a `TimerTask` object with the `run` method overridden to define the task logic.
We use the `schedule` method of the `Timer` class to schedule the task to run after a specified delay, in this case, 2000 milliseconds (2 seconds).
