-'''pthreads''' defines a set of [[C (programming language)|C]] programming language [[data type|types]], [[function (computer science)|functions]] and constants. It is implemented with a <code>pthread.h</code> header and a thread [[Library (computing)|library]].
-There are around 100 threads procedures, all prefixed <code>pthread_</code> and they can be categorized into four groups:
-*Thread management - creating, joining threads etc.
-*[[Mutex]]es
-*[[Condition variable]]s
-*[[synchronization (computer science)|Synchronization]] between threads using read/write locks and barriers
-The POSIX [[semaphore (programming)|semaphore]] API works with POSIX threads but is not part of threads standard, having been defined in the ''POSIX.1b, Real-time extensions (IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993)'' standard. Consequently, the semaphore procedures are prefixed by <code>sem_</code> instead of <code>pthread_</code>.
