+// In this exercise, we are given a `Vec` of u32 called `numbers` with values
+// ranging from 0 to 99. We would like to use this set of numbers within 8
+// different threads simultaneously. Each thread is going to get the sum of
+// every eighth value with an offset.
+//
+// The first thread (offset 0), will sum 0, 8, 16, …
+// The second thread (offset 1), will sum 1, 9, 17, …
+// The third thread (offset 2), will sum 2, 10, 18, …
+// …
+// The eighth thread (offset 7), will sum 7, 15, 23, …
+//
+// Because we are using threads, our values need to be thread-safe. Therefore,
+// we are using `Arc`.
+
+// Don't change the lines below.
