@nitish

I think using fork() it is not possible , to achieve , what you are
trying to do ..
Because , though address space is shared , but all the variable of
parent process can't be communicated through child process.as they
dont have a shared memory block.where we can place our semaphore.

It would be better if you use , a global variable and 2 threads and
try to show how semaphores work.

Correct Me , if I am wrong ..!!
