THREADS in C PROGRAM HELP PLEASE!!

Using the thread3.c program provided below, itt will require some code modification. Those modifications include:

- instead of 10,000 threads, create 40,000 threads in total

- instead of creating just one kind of thread, create 4 kinds of threads (each with 10,000 instances)

o group 1: adds 1 to counter

o group 2: adds 5 to counter

o group 3: subtracts 2 from counter

o group 4: subtracts 10 from counter

Run the program 5 times and take a screen shot showing the output of the run. Add comments throughout the code please!

thread3.c given code:

// Compile with:
//
// clang -lpthread thread3.c -o thread3
// or
// gcc -lpthread thread3.c -o thread3
//
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <pthread.h>

#define NTHREADS 10000

// shared variable
int counter = 0;

// thread to be executed - unspecified variable arguments
void *thread (void *vargp) {
counter = counter +1;
return NULL;
}

int main() {
// array to keep Pthread IDs of created threads
pthread_t tid[NTHREADS];
int i;

printf("Counter starts at %d\n", counter);

// create and run the thread
for (i=0; i < NTHREADS; ++i){
pthread_create(&(tid[i]), NULL, thread, NULL);
}

//wait until all threads are done
for (i=0; i < NTHREADS; ++i){
pthread_join(tid[i], NULL);
}

printf("Counter ends at %d\n", counter);

return 0;
}
