Reference

The reference provides a documentation of the Python API exposed by the ParPy package.

warning

This documentation is based on an old version of ParPy. While the functionality currently documented should largely still be accurate, there may be errors, and newer features are completely missing from this reference.

Overview​

The ParPy API consists of the following documented modules:

  • pypar: the main module, containing the key functionality needed to parallelize functions
  • pypar.backend: functionality related to the backends
  • pypar.buffer: a custom buffer type in ParPy used internally to reduce memory movement
  • pypar.types: types available in ParPy used to declare externals and in buffers
  • pypar.operators: operators supported internally by the ParPy compiler
