 ### Return Value
 
-An object of type [thread::id](../standard-library/thread-class.md) that uniquely identifies the current thread of execution.
+An object of type [`thread::id`](thread-class.md#id_class) that uniquely identifies the current thread of execution.

+### Example
+
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+#include <thread>
+
+int main()
+{

 ### Parameters
 
-*Rel_time*\
-A [duration](../standard-library/duration-class.md) object that specifies a time interval.
+*`Rel_time`*\
+A [`duration`](duration-class.md) object that specifies a time interval.
 
 ### Remarks
 
-The function blocks the calling thread for at least the time that's specified by *Rel_time*. This function does not throw any exceptions.
