philosophers

This project represents the solution of dining philosophers problem, but with any number of philosphers.

Description

Each directory "philo_*" contains solution with some differences in approach:

• philo_one - using threads and mutexes

• philo_two - using threads and semaphores

• philo_three - using processes and semaphores.

Build

1. cd to philo_* directory;
2. make creates executable named "philo_number".

To remove all files created by program run make fclean, or make clean to remove all except executable.

Usage

Program arguments: number_of_philosophers time_to_die time_to_eat time_to_sleep [number_of_times_each_philosopher_must_eat], time in ms.

For example ./philo_one 4 500 100 100
