Shared memory and shared variables are the most common ways for UNIX threads to communicate with each other.
A mutex variable, which is an abbreviation of mutual exclusion variable, is mainly used for thread synchronization and for protecting shared data when multiple writes can occur at the same time. A mutex works like a buffered channel with a capacity of one, which allows at most one goroutine to access a shared variable at any given time. This means that there is no way for two or more goroutines to try to update that variable simultaneously.
A critical section of a concurrent program is the code that cannot be executed simultaneously by all processes, threads, or, in this case, goroutines. It is the code that needs to be protected by mutexes. Therefore, identifying the critical sections of your code will make the whole programming process...
