Q:

Why we use do-while loop in c?

Answer

It is also called as post tested loop. It is used when it is necessary to execute the loop at least one time. Syntax:

do {
Loop body
} while (Expression);

Example:

int main(){
    int num,i=0;  
    do{
         printf("To enter press 1\n");
         printf("To exit press  2");
         scanf("%d",&num);
         ++i;
         switch(num){
             case 1:printf("You are welcome\n");break;
             default : exit(0);
         }
    }
    while(i<=10);
    return 0;
}

Output: 3 3 4 4

Q:

What is process synchronization?

Answer

A situation, where several processes access and manipulate the same data concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place, is called race condition. To guard against the race condition we need to ensure that only one process at a time can be manipulating the same data. The technique we use for this is called process synchronization.
