The values can be arbitrarily combined, specified via a function object <code class="computeroutput">op</code>. The type <code class="computeroutput">T</code> of the values may be any type that is serializable or has an associated MPI data type. One can think of this operation as a <code class="computeroutput">gather</code> to some process, followed by an <code class="computeroutput">std::prefix_sum()</code> over the gathered values using the operation <code class="computeroutput">op</code>. The ith process returns the ith value emitted by <code class="computeroutput">std::prefix_sum()</code>.</p> <p>When the type <code class="computeroutput">T</code> has an associated MPI data type, this routine invokes <code class="computeroutput">MPI_Scan</code> to perform the reduction. If possible, built-in MPI operations will be used; otherwise, <code class="computeroutput">scan()</code> will create a custom <code class="computeroutput">MPI_Op</code> for the call to MPI_Scan.</p> <p> |
