| A rendezvous channel, similar to those used in CSP and Ada. Each put must
wait for a take, and vice versa. Synchronous channels are well suited for
handoff designs, in which an object running in one thread must synch up
with an object running in another thread in order to hand it some
information, event, or task.
If you only need threads to synch up without exchanging information,
consider using a Barrier. If you need bidirectional exchanges, consider
using a Rendezvous.
