Suppose two threads with a shared variable "x" execute the following instructions: shared int x; P1: _ x=0; x = x + 1; x = x + 1; x = x - 1; x = x - 1; _ if(x=1) cout << "Hi mom!" << endl; P2: - I x = 0; x = x + 1; x = x + 1; x = x - 1; x = x - 1; if (x=1) cout << "Hi mom!" << endl; Show this code can print "Hi mom!” by finding a sequence of instructions that can cause a race condition. Illustrate your sequence by numbering the instructions with the order in which they are executed.

Question
Suppose two threads with a shared variable “x” execute the following instructions:
shared int x;
P1:
x = 0;
x = x + 1;
x = x + 1;
X = X
X = X
1;
1;
if (x==1)
cout << "Hi mom!" << endl;
P2:
x = 0;
x = x + 1;
x = x + 1;
x = x - 1;
x = x - 1;
if (x==1)
cout << "Hi mom!" << endl;
Show this code can print “Hi mom!” by finding a sequence of instructions that can cause a race
condition. Illustrate your sequence by numbering the instructions with the order in which they are
executed.
