Answer from AI
The standard C++ libraries (for example, in <mutex>) implement the following types of mutexes:
std::mutex— a basic mutex that provides mutual exclusion.std::recursive_mutex— a recursive mutex that can be locked multiple times by the same thread without causing a deadlock.std::timed_mutex— a mutex with the ability to attempt locking with a timeout.std::recursive_timed_mutex— a recursive mutex with timeout.
In C (POSIX), mutexes are represented through pthread_mutex_t with various attributes, including normal, recursive, and others.
