    Documentation - Laboratory 5: Answer The Following Questions

    The document discusses modifying a ProducerConsumer program to produce only one item at a time for the consumer to immediately consume. It explains that synchronized methods ensure threads wait for each other and never run at the same time. The produce() method was changed to make a single item and then notify the consumer thread using notify() so it can consume using wait(), ensuring only one item is produced before consumption. The output confirms the change worked as intended.

    Answer the following questions:


    A. Using synchronized methods in ProducerConsumer we ensure that the functions wait for each
    other, and never run in the same time.
    B. The notify() method alerts the other thread to start and the wait() method allows this thread to
    wait until certain condition is met.

    Make the program produce one item that the consumer immediately
    consumes.
    First of all I had a closer look at all the classes given to better understand how to program works, after
    studying the program it was clear that the change had to be made in the produce() method in the
    ProducerConsumer class so I changed the method so the produce function will only make one item at a
    time and then notifies the other thread to consume it.

    Before After

    Bellow we can also see the new output of the application:
