ParallelArray

ParallelArray[f, n]
generates in parallel a list of length n, with elements f[i], evaluated.

ParallelArray[f, {n₁, n₂, ...}]
generates in parallel an

array of nested lists, with elements f[i₁, i₂, ...].

ParallelArray[f, {n₁, n₂, ...}, {r₁, r₂, ...}]
generates in parallel a list using the index origins r_i (default 1).

ParallelArray[f, dims, origin, h]
uses head h, rather than List, for each level of the array.

ParallelArray is a parallel version of Array, which automatically distributes different evaluations of expr among different kernels and processors.

ParallelArray will give the same results as Array, except for side effects during the computation.

If an instance of ParallelArray cannot be parallelized it is evaluated using Array.
