QUESTION $2$

In the Dining$-$Philosopher problem, explain how the "asymmetric" solution solves deadlock.

$1)$Odd philosopher first picks left chopstick and then right, whereas even philosopher first picks right chopstick and then left. This ensures that at least one philosopher will

not be able to pick any chopstick when all of them try to acquire it simultaneously and hence deadlock is avoided.

$2)$Odd philosopher first picks right chopstick and then left, whereas even philosopher first picks left chopstick and then right. This ensures that at least one philosopher will

not be able to pick any chopstick when all of them try to acquire it simultaneously and hence deadlock is avoided.

$3)$Both the other answers are correct.
