+# myCounter
+
+My Counter is an implementation of a threaded producer consumer architecture.
+In this implementation, the producer (main thread) increments the counter and 
+the consumer (spawned thread) prints out the changes to myCount. Some status
+updates about the locking, waiting, and signaling of threads and mutexes are 
+printed to the output as well.
