Overview
Note:
‘a = b` is not a thread-safe operation on `Concurrent::Array`. It reads array `a`, then it creates new `Concurrent::Array` which is concatenation of `a` and `b`, then it writes the concatenation to `a`. The read and write are independent operations they do not form a single atomic operation therefore when two `=` operations are executed concurrently updates may be lost. Use `#concat` instead.
A thread-safe subclass of Array. This version locks against the object itself for every method call, ensuring only one thread can be reading or writing at a time. This includes iteration methods like ‘#each`.
