❌ A. Counter value: 20000 ✅ B. Counter value: Less than 20000 ❌ C. Counter value: More than 20000 ❌ D. Compilation error ❌ E. Runtime error ❌ F. None of the above
Explanation: This code snippet demonstrates a scenario where two threads (t1 and t2) increment a shared static variable counter. Each thread iterates 10000 times and increments the counter.
Due to the concurrent nature of multithreading, the increment operation (counter++) is not atomic. It consists of reading the current value of counter, adding 1 to it, and then writing the new value back. This introduces a race condition.
It's possible that while one thread is performing the read-modify-write operation, the other thread may perform a similar operation concurrently, causing the updates to overlap and potentially leading to lost updates.
The correct answer is option B) Counter value: Less than 20000. The exact output value can vary due to the race condition. The threads might interfere with each other's updates, causing some increments to be lost. Therefore, the output value will likely be less than 20000.
In a multithreaded scenario like this, proper synchronization mechanisms (e.g., synchronized keyword or AtomicInteger) should be used to ensure the correct behavior of shared variables.

From the Files app, scroll down to Internal storage, and tap on WhatsApp. Once you’re there, go to Media and then WhatsApp Stickers. Don’t be surprised if you find a large number of files in that folder—it holds your personal collection of stickers and every one you’ve ever received. Even the bad ones.Tap the three dots in the top right corner of your screen to Select all. If you want to trim the fat and grab only the best of the best, this is the perfect time to do so: choose the ones you want to export by long-pressing one file to activate selection mode, and then tapping on the rest. Once you’re done, hit the Share button (that “less than”-like symbol at the top of your screen). If you have a big collection—more than 500 stickers, for example—it’s possible that nothing will happen when you tap the Share button. Be patient—your phone’s just struggling with a heavy load.On the menu that pops from the bottom of the screen, choose Telegram, and then select the chat named Saved messages. This is a chat only you can see, and it will serve as your sticker bank. Unlike WhatsApp, Telegram doesn’t store your favorite stickers in a quick-access reservoir right beside the typing field, but you’ll be able to snatch them out of your Saved messages chat and forward them to any of your Telegram contacts. This also means you won’t have a quick way to save incoming stickers like you did on WhatsApp, so you’ll have to forward them from one chat to the other.
Telegram hopes to raise $1bn with a convertible bond private placement
The super secure UAE-based Telegram messenger service, developed by Russian-born software icon Pavel Durov, is looking to raise $1bn through a bond placement to a limited number of investors from Russia, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, the Kommersant daily reported citing unnamed sources on February 18, 2021.The issue reportedly comprises exchange bonds that could be converted into equity in the messaging service that is currently 100% owned by Durov and his brother Nikolai.Kommersant reports that the price of the conversion would be at a 10% discount to a potential IPO should it happen within five years.The minimum bond placement is said to be set at $50mn, but could be lowered to $10mn. Five-year bonds could carry an annual coupon of 7-8%.
