Question

Make a copy of the pthreads_skeleton.cpp program and name it pthreads_p2.cpp Modify the main function to implement a loop that reads 10 integers from the console (user input) and stores these numbers in a one-dimensional (1D) array (this code will go right after the comment that says ""Add code to perform any needed initialization or to process user input""). You should use a global array for this.

Answer 1

The question involves modifying a C++ pthreads program to read 10 integers from user input and store them in a global array, a task that encompasses basic C++ IO operations and array usage.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking for help with modifying a C++ program that uses POSIX threads (pthreads). Specifically, they want to add a section of code into the main function of the program to read 10 integers from the console and store these integers in a global one-dimensional array. This task involves knowledge of basic C++ input/output operations, array handling, and possibly understanding the threading part of the program that will be using this global array.

To fulfill this request, one must declare a global array capable of holding at least 10 integers. In the main function, after the specified comment, a loop should be implemented. This loop will use std::cin to read an integer from user input and then store each integer in the global array. The loop must iterate exactly 10 times to collect the 10 integers as specified.
