All MPI routines are prefixed by MPI_
-
C is always MPI_Xnnnnn(parameters) : C is case sensitive
-
Fortran is case insensitive but we will write MPI_XNNNNN(parameters)
|
| 2 |
MPI constants are in upper case as are MPI datatypes, e.g. MPI_FLOAT for floating point number in C
|
| 3 |
Specify overall constants with
-
#include "mpi.h" in C programs
-
include "mpif.h" in Fortran
|
| 4 |
C routines are actually integer functions and always return an integer status (error) code
|
| 5 |
Fortran routines are really subroutines and have returned status code as last argument
-
Please check on status codes although this is often skipped!
