Approach 1: Use a Synchronized Write Position

Approach 1: Use a Synchronized Write Position

Learn how to use a synchronized write position approach with atomic size_t and fetch_add() to avoid multiple threads writing to the same index in parallel algorithms.

We'll cover the following...

Overview

The first approach we might consider is to synchronize the write position by using an atomic size_t and the fetch_add() member function. Whenever a thread tries to write a new element, it fetches the current index and adds one atomically; thus, each value is written ...
