Reader Writer Using Semaphores

This document contains code for a writer program that uses semaphores to coordinate access between a writer process and reader processes. The writer process increments a count variable and uses semaphore operations to signal it can write, while reader processes print the item number being read and signal they are done reading. The processes take turns writing 10 items and reading 10 items each before exiting.
