Explore how to use the Monitor class in C# to implement bounded buffers by synchronizing enqueue and dequeue operations. Understand why Monitor.PulseAll is essential to prevent deadlocks when multiple producer and consumer threads operate concurrently. This lesson helps you effectively manage critical sections and thread signaling in concurrency scenarios.

Monitor Implementation
We can also implement the bounded buffer using the Monitor class. In fact, using the Monitor class saves us from busy-waiting, as a blocked thread can relinquish the monitor until it gets signaled.
Let's implement the enqueue() method first. We'll define the entire method as a critical section as we manipulate shared data-structures within it. ...
