What libraries support atomic operations?

What libraries support atomic operations in C++?

In C++, the standard library provides support for atomic operations through the <atomic> header. This includes classes like std::atomic.

Are there any other libraries that offer atomic operations?

Yes, besides the standard library, you can also use libraries like Boost.Atomic, which provides additional atomic types and operations.

What about atomic operations in Python?

In Python, the threading module provides atomic operations through locks, but for true atomic operations, you might consider using the multiprocessing module.

Can you explain how atomic operations work?

Atomic operations are indivisible operations that complete in a single step relative to other threads. This ensures data integrity in concurrent programming.
