functions_openmp, a C code which demonstrates some features of some of the OpenMP library functions.
Some of the most useful OpenMP library functions include:
| dynamic_truefalse = | omp_get_dynamic ( ) |
| t_max = | omp_get_max_threads ( ) |
| nested_truefalse = | omp_get_nested ( ) |
| p_num = | omp_get_num_procs ( ) |
| t_num = | omp_get_num_threads ( ) |
| t_id = | omp_get_thread_num ( ) |
| wtime = | omp_get_wtime ( ) |
| in_parallel_truefalse = | omp_in_parallel ( ) |
| omp_set_dynamic ( dynamic_truefalse ) | |
| omp_set_nested ( nested_truefalse ) | |
| omp_set_num_threads ( t_num ) |
This code demonstrates how some of these functions are used, and how they behave in parallel and non-parallel regions.
