Ruby - Concurrent Programming
What feature does a Fiber provide in Ruby's concurrency model?
AEnables asynchronous I/O operations without blocking
BAutomatically manages multiple threads in parallel
CAllows pausing and resuming code execution explicitly
DCreates new processes for parallel execution
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand Fiber's role

    Fibers provide cooperative concurrency by allowing code to pause and resume explicitly.
  2. Step 2: Differentiate from threads and processes

    Unlike threads or processes, Fibers do not run in parallel automatically.
  3. Final Answer:

    Allows pausing and resuming code execution explicitly -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Fibers are cooperative, not preemptive concurrency [OK]
Quick Trick: Fibers pause and resume code manually [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Confusing Fibers with threads that run in parallel
  • Assuming Fibers handle asynchronous I/O automatically
