Thread Creation, Race Condition

Write a program that creates two threads. Each one of the threads increments the same integer, say, 10000000 times.

• The integer is shared between both threads (allocated in the main() function). A pointer to it gets passed to the thread start function.

• The threads don’t increment a copy of the integer, but rather access the same memory location.

After the starting process (the main thread) has synchronized with the incrementer’s termination, it outputs the current value of the said integer.
