Implementing Multithreaded Servers in Linux Using POSIX Threads
Creating Basic Threads in Linux
To implement mlutithreading in Linux, we use the POSIX threads library (pthread.h). Here's a basic example:
#include <iostream>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <unistd.h>
void* worker_function(void* data);
int main() {
