  • Replies with the msg received from script B or C.
• Script B should be a client which:
  • Sends the following msg to the server: “This is Client B.”
  • Prints the reply received from Script A.
• Script C should be a client which:
  • Sends the following msg to the server: “I am Client C.”
  • Prints the reply received from Script A.

4. Fourth Script:

• Creates two threads (Thread A, Thread B).
• Threads should alternate using Mutex to print the following:

  • Thread B should print numbers even numbers from 2 to 14
• The output should be in the following sequence: 1 ➔ 2 ➔ 2 ➔ 4 ➔ 3 ➔ 6 ➔ 4➔ 8➔ 5➔ 10➔ 6➔ 12➔ 7➔ 14
