FUNCTIONS_OPENMP
Demonstrate Some OpenMP Library Functions


FUNCTIONS_OPENMP is a C program 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 )

FUNCTIONS_OPENMP demonstrates how some of these functions are used, and how they behave in parallel and non-parallel regions.
