2.5.1 parallel for Construct

The parallel for directive is a shortcut for a parallel region that contains only a single for directive. The syntax of the parallel for directive is as follows:

#pragma omp parallel for [clause[[,] clause] ...] new-line 
   for-loop

This directive allows all the clauses of the parallel directive and the for directive, except the nowait clause, with identical meanings and restrictions. The semantics are identical to explicitly specifying a parallel directive immediately followed by a for directive.
