Concurrent collections in C# .NET, thread safe varieties of List

 Concurrent collections in C# are specifically created data structures that are intended for use in multi-threaded environments. Their main purpose is to provide thread-safe operations, ensuring that multiple threads can access and modify the collection without causing any data corruption or race conditions. These collections belong to the System.Collections.Concurrent namespace and offer highly efficient and scalable solutions for concurrent programming situations.

1. ConcurrentDictionary is a dictionary that provides thread-safety, allowing multiple threads to read and write key-value pairs simultaneously. It guarantees atomicity for all operations on the dictionary and offers exceptional performance in multi-threaded scenarios.
2. ConcurrentQueue handles simultaneous enqueuing and dequeuing, it provides thread-safety and effectively manages producer-consumer scenarios. Whether you have multiple threads producing data or consuming it, ConcurrentQueue ensures smooth operation and efficient data management.
3. ConcurrentBag is a collection that offers thread-safe functionality, allowing simultaneous addition and removal of items by multiple threads. It is important to note that unlike other collections, ConcurrentBag does not enforce a specific ordering for its elements.
4. ConcurrentStack is a stack data structure that ensures thread safety, enabling multiple threads to concurrently push and pop elements. The order in which the elements are processed follows a last-in-first-out (LIFO) pattern.
