[Year 12 SofDev] Concurrency Issues

[Mark KELLY]

Locking a file or record was as far as I went with coping with networked
programming.  Kids can be responsible for that within their little bit of
code.

Managing a queue for access to files would, I believe, be beyond the scope
of what is expected of students. Such control would have to be outside of
their code, and be OS-dependent, wouldn't it?

My cow died on this day two years ago.  I know because I noted it in my
dairy.
