C++ Standard Template Library in Practice - Section 8 Review

The video tutorial covers threading in processors, including methods like no threading, time-sliced multithreading, and simultaneous multithreading with multiple cores. It explains how to create threads using thread objects and addresses race conditions using mutexes and locks. Shared locks for read and write operations are discussed, along with atomic values for synchronization. Asynchronous features in C, such as promise and future objects, are introduced. The tutorial also covers condition variables for thread notification and concludes with a project and a preview of the C 20 section.

Describe the purpose of atomic values in threading.

What are condition variables and how do they facilitate communication between threads?
