2.5.2 parallel sections Construct

The parallel sections directive provides a shortcut form for specifying a parallel region containing only a single sections directive. The semantics are identical to explicitly specifying a parallel directive immediately followed by a sections directive. The syntax of the parallel sections directive is as follows:

#pragma omp parallel sections  [clause[[,] clause] ...] new-line
   {
   [#pragma omp section new-line]
      structured-block
   [#pragma omp section new-line 
      structured-block  ]
   ...
}

The clause can be one of the clauses accepted by the parallel and sections directives, except the nowait clause.
