threads - buckets

This folder contains an implementation of an atomic updates task and it was coded for a contribution to the Rosetta Code website.

For more information see:

https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Atomic_updates

When using XVM as the backend, this example must be run from the top-level interpreter.

Print Logtalk, Prolog backend, and kernel versions (if running as a notebook):

%versions

Start by loading the example and the required libraries:

logtalk_load(buckets(loader)).

Start shuffling randomly the buckets contents (note that the bucket values are random numbers and thus their sum varies by run and by the backend):

buckets::start.

<!-- Sum of all bucket values: 52
