Race conditions often arise when two or more threads access shared resources without proper synchronization, leading to unpredictable and erroneous behavior.
For example, in a bank account system with simultaneous deposit and withdrawal transactions, lack of synchronization can cause incorrect balances.
To prevent race conditions, implementing synchronization mechanisms ensures that only one thread can access shared resources at a time, maintaining data integrity.
Common causes of race conditions include improper synchronization and concurrent access to shared resources without protective measures, making it crucial to manage access effectively.
