True or False: The Exchanger allows two threads to exchange objects.

True
False

The correct answer is: True

The Exchanger class in Java is a synchronization mechanism that allows two threads to exchange objects between them. However, it does not guarantee that the exchange will be performed in a particular order. This makes it possible for the exchange to occur between two different threads at the same time, which is known as a swap. Therefore, the statement in the question is true. Option B is incorrect because the Exchanger does indeed allow the exchange of objects between threads. It is not false that the Exchanger can perform this task.
