#          Example of using OpenMP parallel routine

# Compile with
# `nim c -d:release -r -d:openmp -o:build/omp examples/ex02_omp_parallel_for.nim`
# If needed pass the custom compiler flags.
# For example on MacOS, we need GCC from Homebrew as the default Clang does not support OpenMP:
# `--cc:gcc --gcc.exe:"/usr/local/bin/gcc-7" --gcc.linkerexe:"/usr/local/bin/gcc-7"`
