Not Race Condition

Question Text​

What type of parallel actions never cause race conditions?

Question Answers​

  • Only reads

  • Reads and writes

  • Reads and executions
  • All parallel actions can cause race conditions

Feedback​

Race conditions only appear when a thread writes and another thread depends on the write / update of the other thread. Other types of access (read and execute) do not modify the data, thus they do not cause race conditions.
