Can the possibility of dead locks cause a huge amount of loss in mark like
0/80 on the Locking section??

Hi Khaled,

Good point.

In my opinion to program a dead lock is a crtical error and good reason to give not much points for the locking section.

Further, I assume that a deadlock would mean, that you do not pass the locking section.

Hi,

Yesterday I read in one of my books that you would defently fail the exam, if you have a deadlock in your program.

I have triple checked my code and sure there is no dead locks.You you dont know how those exam assessors think.
I have been waiting for the exam result for about 2 weeks now and still no response.What's up???
