Atomics.

exchange()
The static Atomics.exchange() method stores a given value at a given position in the array and
returns the old value at that position. This atomic operation guarantees that no other write happens
between the read of the old value and the write of the new value.

Syntax
Atomics.exchange(typedArray, index, value)

Parameters
typedArray
An integer typed array. One of Int8Array, Uint8Array, Int16Array, Uint16Array,
Int32Array, Uint32Array, BigInt64Array, or BigUint64Array.
index
The position in the typedArray to exchange a value.
value
The number to exchange.
Return value
The old value at the given position (typedArray[index]).

Exceptions
 Throws a TypeError, if typedArray is not one of the allowed integer types.
 Throws a RangeError, if index is out of bounds in the typedArray.

Examples
Using exchange()
const sab = new SharedArrayBuffer(1024);
const ta = new Uint8Array(sab);

Atomics.exchange(ta, 0, 12); // returns 0, the old value


Atomics.load(ta, 0); // 12
