Write a Pthreads program 'Dining-Philosophers.c' to implement the classical 'Dining-Philosophers'problem by using Pthreads mutex locks and condition variables. To implement the program, please followthe hints below.

(a) The detailed 'Dining-Philosophers' problem statement: Refer to Page 71 ~ Page 72 in 'Lecture-08.pptx'

   (b) The introduction to Pthreads mutex locks and condition variables: Refer to Page 17 ~ Page 39 in'Lecture-08.pptx'

   (c) Creating five philosophers, each of which will run as a separate thread. Philosophers alternatebetween thinking and eating:

  • The activities of thinking and eating can be simulated by having the thread sleep for a random periodbetween one and three seconds.

  • When a philosopher wishes to eat, he/she invokes the function: Pickup_Forks (int  Philosopher_ID)

  • When a philosopher finishes eating, he/she invokes the function: Return_Forks (int Philosopher_ID)

There are many possible output sequences. Here is one possible output sequence.

Note: I place the output sequence into two columns here, actually the five on the left column should be placed before the rest five on the right column in the same column.

./Dining-Philosophers

Philosopher 0 is eating Philosopher 1 is eating
Philosopher 2 is eating Philosopher 1 is thinking
Philosopher 2 is thinking Philosopher 3 is thinking
Philosopher 3 is eating Philosopher 4 is eating
Philosopher 0 is thinking Philosopher 4 is thinking
