issues that programmers have with concurrency. Many concurrency errors that are
runtime errors in other languages are compile-time errors in Rust.
Rust's concurrency primitive is called a **task**. Tasks are lightweight, and
do not share memory in an unsafe manner, preferring message passing to
communicate. It's worth noting that tasks are implemented as a library, and
not part of the language. This means that in the future, other concurrency
libraries can be written for Rust to help in specific scenarios. Here's an
example of creating a task:
