Synchronization

Multithreading in Java is a powerful tool, but it comes with its own set of challenges, particularly when it comes to synchronization. Imagine you’re at a busy restaurant where multiple chefs are trying to access the same pantry.

Without a system in place, chaos could ensue. Similarly, in a multithreaded environment, if multiple threads access shared resources without coordination, it can lead to unpredictable behavior, data corruption, or even application crashes.

Synchronization is the method we use to control access to shared resources, ensuring that only one thread can access a resource at a time.
