reduction

 

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

Specifies that one or more variables that are private to each thread are the subject of a reduction operation at the end of the parallel region.

Syntax

reduction(operation:var)  

Remarks

where,

operation
The operator for the operation to perform on the variables (var) at the end of the parallel region.

var
One more more variables on which to perform scalar reduction. If more than one variable is specified, separate variable names with a comma.

Remarks

reduction applies to the following directives:
