What does 'synchronized' mean?

Question

Can anyone help me what is the use of the keyword "synchronized" and what does it means?

Answer 1

Basically, synchronized helps you to ensure that threads can able to access the variable in an atomic way. Sometimes, threads can make half changed, in able to prevent this we use "synchronized" keyword.

I hope this will help.
