Bounded queues are those that have a fixed number of elements. To implement a bounded queue in Java, we need to use the java.util.concurrent package. If we used the java.util package, our queues would not be bounded.

Let's implement the bounded queue reactive design pattern with a two-class program. Our implementation will consist of a Bounded class that extends the Thread class. We will also add a Driver class to contain our solution's main() method.

This first segment of code is the beginning of the Bounded class. It contains the import statement for the java.util.concurrent.BlockingQueue class. It also contains the class definition showing that it extends the Thread class. There is an inputValue class variable of a BlockingQueue type. Next, we have the class constructor method that takes a BlockingQueue object as an argument...
