# Data race error
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A *data race* is similar to a race condition and happens when:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Two or more pointers access the same data at the same time.
|
||
|
|
* At least one of the pointers is being used to write to the data.
|
||
|
|
* There's no synchronization mechanism to protect the data.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Data races* cause undefined behavior and are hard to debug.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Rust prevents *data races* by allowing only a single mutable reference of a value per scope.
