A. Important Questions

The following sections discuss some important questions relating to SMP programming. Each section also shows how to avoid having to worry about the corresponding question, which can be extremely important if your goal is to simply get your SMP code working as quickly and painlessly as possible -- which is an excellent goal, by the way!

Although the answers to these questions are often quite a bit less intuitive than they would be in a single-threaded setting, with a bit of work, they are not that difficult to understand. If you managed to master recursion, there is nothing in here that should pose an overwhelming challenge.
