will also be true.

A practical example of a race condition can occur when logic circuitry is used to detect certain outputs of a counter. If all the bits of the counter do not change exactly simultaneously, there will be intermediate patterns that can trigger false matches.

Critical and non-critical forms

A critical race condition occurs when the order in which internal variables are changed determines the eventual state that the state machine will end up in.
