Description
Welcome to the Course Series on Multi-Threading - The Master Class Course on Threads.

This course is for those who want to develop fundamental concepts on Multi-threading and related concepts. In this course, we shall be going to cover Multi-threading concepts based on Pthreads (POSIX threads) on the Linux platform.

Though We use the C language to demonstrate the concepts, concepts hold good for any programming language. This course is equally valuable for C++ programmers. Other language programmers may also find this course useful as we explain Multithreading concepts close to the ground zero levels No Abstraction.

We shall discuss several concepts involved in multithreading and demonstrate each concept through a sample program. Several Important Concepts include but not limited to - Deadlocks, Mutual Exclusion, Atomicity, Thread Synchronization, Race Conditions, Thread forking, and many more.

In the Next Installment of this course, we shall extend our knowledge of Multi-threading to Advance Concepts, including mini-projects on Multithreading and Thread Synchronization.

At each stage of this Course series, you shall be writing a lot of multi-threaded Codes. So be ready to Master the Multi-threading. Along the journey, we shall cover several interview-favorite topics and Questions to prepare you alongside for interviews.

Best of luck!
