multi threading

im a bit rusty on multithreading altogether lol i know i read somewhere that running functions that require information from one another in parallel sometimes cause problems though,


for example if funcion 2 needs data from function 1 you cant run them on separate threads. Again im not sure but if function 1 and function 2 feed data to function 3 they can be run on separate threads that are then joined together and then function 3 is run

Right, among other things that'd be what lock() unlock() commands are for. Tells it to hold off on thread jumping till the actions performed between the two calls are completed. should be a join or merge in there someplace as well if i recall correctly. That's what ties the various threads back to into one rope, as it were.
