Imagine a situation where multiple passengers eagerly await their turn to take a ride in a car. This car has a limited capacity and can only set off when fully occupied, with a maximum of C passengers on board $($where C is less than the total number of passengers$).$ Passengers have the simple tasks of getting on and off the car, while the car itself must manage the loading, running, and unloading procedures. Passengers are allowed to board only when the car has completed the loading process, and the car can commence its journey once it has reached its maximum passenger capacity. Passengers can disembark from the car only after it has completed its unloading process.

Simulate the above by modeling the car and the passengers as threads. Take the total number of passengers and capacity as input from the user.

Simulate the above problem by modeling the passengers and car as threads. Specifically, the car thread has to do the following tasks:

Load specified number of passengers for the ride

Wait for all passengers to get on the ride

Run the duration of the ride

Unload all the passengers until ride is empty

Each passenger thread has to do the following:

Board the ride when it is available

Get off the ride when the ride is over

Time taken for each step can be simulated using the sleep function with appropriate duration, and every action carried out must be printed to console $($in case of passengers, mention which passenger is carrying out the action using appropriate means$).$ Synchronization can be carried out between car and passenger threads as necessary. Ensure that your code is deadlock$-$free. Use semaphores for synchronization.
