# Threads

In most current operating systems, an executed program's code is run in a process, and the operating system manages multiple processes at once.
Within your program, you can also have independent parts that run simultaneously. The features that run these independent parts are called threads.

docs: add more info in threads info.toml: ```toml [[exercises]] name = "threads3" path = "exercises/threads/threads3.rs" mode = "test" hint = """ An alternate way to handle concurrency between threads is to use a mpsc (multiple producer, single consumer) channel to communicate. With both a sending end and a receiving end, it's possible to send values in one thread and receive them in another. Multiple producers are possible by using clone() to create a duplicate of the original sending end. See https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch16-02-message-passing.html for more info.
