reduction

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.

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:
