Given with the input as fraction i.e. a/b and c/d where a, b, c and d can be any integer values other than 0 and the task is to add these two fraction to generate their final sum.Fractions are represented by −a / b, where a is known as numerator and b is known as denominator.a and b can have any numeric values but b can have any numeric value other than 0.Sum of two fractions is represented as a / b + c / d, and the rule for adding the two terms is that their denominator must be ...

Given with the 3-D plane and hence three coordinates and the task is to find the distance between the given points and display the result.In a three dimension plane there are three axis that are x-axis with its coordinates as (x1, y1, z1), y-axis with its coordinates as (x2, y2, z2) and z-axis with its coordinates as (x3, y3, z). To calculate the distance between them there is a direct formula which is given below$$\sqrt{\lgroup x2-x1\rgroup^{2}+\lgroup y2-y1\rgroup^{2}+\lgroup z2-z1\rgroup^{2}}$$Given below is the diagram representing three different axis and their coordinatesApproach used below is as follows −Input the coordinates as (x1, y1, ...

You are given with number of days, and the task is to convert the given number of days in terms of years, weeks and days.Let us assume the number of days in a year =365Number of year = (number of days) / 365Explanation-: number of years will be the quotient obtained by dividing the given number of days with 365Number of weeks = (number of days % 365) / 7Explanation-: number of weeks will be obtained by collecting the remainder from dividing the number of days with 365 and further dividing the result with number of days in a week ...

Pthreads refers to the POSIX standard (IEEE 1003.1c) defining an API for thread creation and synchronization. This defines specification for thread behavior, not an implementation. The specification can be implemented by OS designers in any way they wish. So many systems implement the Pthreads specification; most are UNIX-type systems, including Linux, Mac OS X, and Solaris. Although Windows doesn’t support Pthreads natively, some third-party implementations for Windows are available. The C program shown in Figure 4.9 demonstrates the basic Pthreads API for constructing a multithreaded program that calculates the summation of a nonnegative integer in a separate thread. Separate threads ... Read More

Implicit ThreadingOne way to address the difficulties and better support the design of multithreaded applications is to transfer the creation and management of threading from application developers to compilers and run-time libraries. This, termed implicit threading, is a popular trend today.Implicit threading is mainly the use of libraries or other language support to hide the management of threads. The most common implicit threading library is OpenMP, in context of C.OpenMP is a set of compiler directives as well as an API for programs written in C, C++, or FORTRAN that provides support for parallel programming in shared-memory environments. OpenMP identifies ... Read More

Threads are created in the Windows API using the CreateThread() function, and—just as in Pthreads—a set of attributes like security information, the size of the stack, and a flag for the thread is passed to this function. In the below program, we use the default values for these attributes. (The default values do not initially set the thread to a suspended state and instead make it eligible to be run by the CPU scheduler.) Once the summation thread is created, the parent must wait for it to complete before outputting the value of Sum, as the value is set by ... Read More
