Semaphores Producer Consumer

The document contains a C program that implements a producer-consumer problem using semaphores for synchronization. It defines a buffer of fixed size and creates producer and consumer threads that produce and consume items while managing access to the buffer. The program initializes semaphores, creates threads, and ensures proper synchronization to avoid race conditions.
