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.
