Are you ready to take the Threading Challenge?

We know you love a good puzzle; so our multi-threading experts have pulled together some of our most interesting brain teasers to give you a chance to flex your threading skills. Every month a new problem set will open for submissions and you will be awarded points based on your answers. Be sure to take advantage of our threading resources and tools to solve your problems and gain extra points. Each problem set winner will be announced on the site after the problem is closed but it’s the contestant who gathers the most points who'll win the Grand Prize . Also, check out the additional prizes for the limited time frame of June, July and August 2008. So sharpen your pencils and let the challenge begin! See official rules for details.
