MPE_Seq_begin(4)

NAME
     MPE_Seq_begin -  Begins a sequential section of code.

SYNOPSIS
     #include 
     #include "mpe.h"
     void MPE_Seq_begin( comm, ng )
     MPI_Comm comm;
     int      ng;

INPUT PARAMETERS
     comm - Communicator to sequentialize.
     ng   - Number in group.  This many processes are allowed  to
          execute at the same time.  Usually one.

NOTES
     to be executed by the processes in rank  order.   Typically,
     this is done with
     MPE_Seq_begin( comm, 1 );
     
     MPE_Seq_end( comm, 1 );
     Often, the sequential code contains output statements (e.g.,
     'printf')  to  be executed.  Note that you may need to flush
     the I/O buffers before calling 'MPE_Seq_end'; also note that
     some  systems  do not propagate I/O in any order to the con-
     troling terminal (in other words, even if you flush the out-
     put, you may not get the data in the order that you want).
