// In this exercise, we are given a Vec of u32 called "numbers" with values ranging
// from 0 to 99 -- [ 0, 1, 2, ..., 98, 99 ]
// We would like to use this set of numbers within 8 different threads simultaneously.
// Each thread is going to get the sum of every eighth value, with an offset.

//
// The first thread (offset 0), will sum 0, 8, 16, ...

// Because we are using threads, our values need to be thread-safe. Therefore,
// we are using Arc. We need to make a change in each of the two TODOs.
//
// Make this code compile by filling in a value for `shared_numbers` where the
// first TODO comment is, and create an initial binding for `child_numbers`
// where the second TODO comment is. Try not to create any copies of the `numbers` Vec!
// where the second TODO comment is. Try not to create any copies of the
// `numbers` Vec!
//
// Execute `rustlings hint arc1` or use the `hint` watch subcommand for a hint.
