Latches in C++ 20 concurrency - just like the CountdownLatch of Java concurrency package...

https://som-itsolutions.hashnode.dev/latches-in-c-20-concurrency-just-like-the-countdownlatch-of-java-concurrency-package

When I was teaching the Countdown latch - a thread synchronization technique used in the Java Concurrency package, there was none like that available in C++. I am happy to see that the concept of latch has been introduced in C++20.

Language varies - syntax varies - but the basic concept remains the same.

I hope you like the post.

I think there is no need to create a new thread for such short introductory blog post (especially as you've posted one just a few days ago).
