Lab 10: Threads

Due: 2026-12-01 at 23:59

In this lab, you’re going to take a single threaded program and turn it into a multithreaded program by splitting up the computation into multiple threads.

You will learn

• how to spawn threads; and
• how to return values from threads.

Preliminaries

First, find your partner. Click on the assignment link. One partner should create a new team. The second partner should click the link and choose the appropriate team. (Please don’t choose the wrong team, there’s a maximum of two people and if you join the wrong one, you’ll prevent the correct person from joining.) The team name can be the same as what you used in previous labs.

Once you have accepted the assignment and created/joined a team, you can clone the repository and begin working.

Compiler warnings and errors

Make sure your code compiles and passes clippy without errors or warnings. That is, running

$ cargo clean
$ cargo build
$ cargo clippy

should build your program without errors or warnings.

Formatting

Your code must be formatted by running cargo fmt.
