Example Concept: In Rust, each value has a single owner, and the compiler enforces borrowing rules that prevent data races. When a value is borrowed mutably, no other references can exist, ensuring exclusive access. Conversely, multiple immutable references can coexist as long as no mutable references are present. This guarantees that data races, which occur when multiple threads access shared data concurrently without proper synchronization, are impossible in safe Rust code.
