MPI_Group_range_incl(3)            Open MPI            MPI_Group_range_incl(3)

NAME
       MPI_Group_range_incl  -  Creates a new group from ranges of ranks in an
       existing group.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Group_range_incl(MPI_Group group, int n, int ranges[][3],
            MPI_Group *newgroup)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_GROUP_RANGE_INCL(GROUP, N, RANGES, NEWGROUP, IERROR)
            INTEGER   GROUP, N, RANGES(3,*), NEWGROUP, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Group_range_incl(group, n, ranges, newgroup, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Group), INTENT(IN) :: group
            INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: n, ranges(3,n)
            TYPE(MPI_Group), INTENT(OUT) :: newgroup
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       Group Group::Range_incl(int n, const int ranges[][3]) const

INPUT PARAMETERS
       group     Group (handle).

       n         Number of triplets in array ranges (integer).

       ranges    A one-dimensional array of  integer  triplets,  of  the  form
                 (first  rank, last rank, stride) indicating ranks in group or
                 processes to be included in newgroup.

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       newgroup  New group derived from above, in the order defined by  ranges
                 (handle).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       If ranges consist of the triplets

           (first1, last1, stride1), ..., (firstn, lastn, striden)

       then newgroup consists of the sequence of processes in group with ranks

                                                        last(1)-first(1)
         first(1), first(1) + stride(1),..., first(1) + ---------------- stride(1),...
                                                            stride(1)

                                                        last(n)-first(n)
         first(n), first(n) + stride(n),..., first(n) + ---------------- stride(n).
                                                            stride(n)

       Each computed rank must be a valid rank in group and all computed ranks
       must be distinct, or else the program is erroneous. Note  that  we  may
       have  first(i)  > last(i), and stride(i) may be negative, but cannot be
       zero.

       The functionality of this routine is specified to be equivalent to  ex-
       panding the array of ranges to an array of the included ranks and pass-
       ing the resulting array of ranks and other arguments to MPI_Group_incl.
       A    call    to   MPI_Group_incl   is   equivalent   to   a   call   to
       MPI_Group_range_incl with each rank i in ranks replaced by the  triplet
       (i,i,1) in the argument ranges.

NOTE
       This  implementation  does  not currently check to see that the list of
       ranges to include are valid ranks in the group.

ERRORS
       Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the  value
       of  the  function  and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ func-
       tions do not return errors. If the default  error  handler  is  set  to
       MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism
       will be used to throw an MPI::Exception object.

       Before the error value is returned, the current MPI  error  handler  is
       called.  By  default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for
       I/O  function  errors.  The  error  handler   may   be   changed   with
       MPI_Comm_set_errhandler; the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN
       may be used to cause error values to be returned. Note  that  MPI  does
       not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
