% start by loading the example and the required library files:

| ?- logtalk_load(buffer(loader)). ...

% start the producer and the consumer, each one running in its own thread, % using a buffer capable of holding at most 7 items, with the consumer being % slower than the producer (float values in seconds must be used):

| ?- threaded_ignore(producer(7,1.2)::run(25)), threaded_ignore(consumer(7,3.7)::run(25)).
