Consider a multi-threaded environment, how can a loop potentially cause a race condition?
- The loop uses a single shared variable among multiple threads without proper synchronization, causing unpredictable results.
- The loop has a long execution time, increasing the likelihood of context switches and thread interference.
- The loop uses thread-local variables, eliminating the possibility of race conditions.
- The loop uses a synchronized keyword, ensuring thread safety.
In a multi-threaded environment, a race condition can occur when multiple threads access and modify a shared variable concurrently without proper synchronization. Option 1 correctly identifies this scenario. Option 2 refers to context switching but not directly to race conditions. Option 3 is a preventative measure, and Option 4 is a solution to race conditions, not a cause.
