MPI_Cart_rank(3)                   Open MPI                   MPI_Cart_rank(3)

NAME
       MPI_Cart_rank   -  Determines process rank in communicator given Carte-
       sian location.

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Cart_rank(MPI_Comm comm, int coords[], int *rank)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_CART_RANK(COMM, COORDS, RANK, IERROR)
            INTEGER   COMM, COORDS(*), RANK, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_Cart_rank(comm, coords, rank, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm
            INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: coords(*)
            INTEGER, INTENT(OUT) :: rank
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int Cartcomm::Get_cart_rank(const int coords[]) const

INPUT PARAMETERS
       comm      Communicator with Cartesian structure (handle).

       coords    Integer  array  (of  size  ndims,  which   was   defined   by
                 MPI_Cart_create call) specifying the Cartesian coordinates of
                 a process.

OUTPUT PARAMETER
       rank      Rank of specified process (integer).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       For  a  process  group   with   Cartesian   structure,   the   function
       MPI_Cart_rank  translates  the  logical  process coordinates to process
       ranks as they are used by the point-to-point routines.  For dimension i
       with  periods(i) = true, if the coordinate, coords(i), is out of range,
       that is, coords(i) < 0 or  coords(i) >= dims(i), it is shifted back  to
       the  interval  0 =< coords(i) < dims(i) automatically. Out-of-range co-
       ordinates are erroneous for nonperiodic dimensions.

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.
