Type of issue

Code doesn't work

Description

[Enter feedback here] the code example creates the semaphore with inital count of 0

semaphore = new SemaphoreSlim(0, 3);

this actually means that the semaphore cannot be waited on....

instead it should be create with initial count of 3 (which means it can be waited on 3 times)

semaphore = new SemaphoreSlim(3, 3);

please fix this
