* SOURCE: This is a translation of a Pthread program from the Lawrence Livermore
* Computing Center POSIX Threads Programming Exercise at:
* https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/pthreads/exercise.html
* FILE: detached.cvl
* DESCRIPTION:
*   This example demonstrates how to explicitly create a thread in a 
*   detached state. This might be done to conserve some system resources
*   if the thread never needs to join later. Compare with the join.cvl program
*   where the threads are created joinable.
* Command line execution:
* civl verify -inputNUM_THREADS=4 detached.cvl
