[]()
## 💻・Description
Philosophers is a project that introduces the basics of threading a process and how to work with mutexes. It simulates a classic synchronization problem: the dining philosophers problem.
**Features:**
- Simulates philosophers eating, thinking, and sleeping
- Uses threads to represent each philosopher
- Implements mutexes to handle resource sharing (forks)
- Ensures no philosopher starves
**Technologies Used:**
- C Language
- POSIX Threads
- Mutexes
## ⌨️・Usage
1. Compile the program:
```bash
make
```
2. Run the program with the following arguments:
```bash
./philo number_of_philosophers time_to_die time_to_eat time_to_sleep [number_of_times_each_philosopher_must_eat]
```
### Example:
```bash
./philo 5 800 200 200 7
```
