Here are the outcomes under the different scenarios:
- If a reader comes first, it will be able to read the data in the database.
- If a reader is using the database and another reader comes along, the second reader will also be able to read the data in the database.
- If a writer comes along while a reader is active, the writer will wait until the reader is finished before it can write to the database. If a supply of readers arrives after the writer, they will also have to wait until the writer is finished before they can read the data in the database.
- If a reader arrives and a writer is waiting, the writer will have to wait until the reader is finished before it can write to the database.
This program creates 10 reader threads and 2 writer threads. The reader threads continually read the value of the database variable, while the writer threads continually update it. The ReaderWriterLockSlim class is used to synchronize access to the database variable. When a writer thread acquires a write lock,
