Thanks Nathanael! Nice starter article on pthreads :)
For the curious, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have this article with more background and examples of why you might use the various features available in pthreads: computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/pthre...
It's also a good idea to make sure you are using thread-safe library functions, here's a nice SO question and answer: stackoverflow.com/questions/125957...
I'm starting to understand a lot about pure Computer Science since I got some courses about the theory of operating systems. It's so fascinating to learn how things really works beyond the compilers and why things are like that in programming languages!
For the theory of operating systems, I see this subject at my school (engineering school), but for programming languages I heard that Engineering a Compiler is very great when starting in this domain.
The Dragon Book is very good but much more advanced.
