computations into parallel</p>
<p>Rayon is lightweight and convenient for introducing parallelism into existing
code. It guarantees data-race free executions and takes advantage of
parallelism when sensible, based on work-load at runtime.</p>
<h1 id="how-to-use-rayon" class="section-header"><a href="#how-to-use-rayon">How to use Rayon</a></h1>
<p>There are two ways to use Rayon:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>High-level parallel constructs</strong> are the simplest way to use Rayon and also
typically the most efficient.
<ul>
<li><a href="iter/index.html">Parallel iterators</a> make it easy to convert a sequential iterator to
execute in parallel.</li>
<li>The <a href="slice/trait.ParallelSliceMut.html#method.par_sort"><code>par_sort</code></a> method sorts <code>&amp;mut [T]</code> slices (or vectors) in parallel.</li>
<li><a href="iter/trait.ParallelExtend.html#tymethod.par_extend"><code>par_extend</code></a> can be used to efficiently grow collections with items produced
by a parallel iterator.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Custom tasks</strong> let you divide your work into parallel tasks yourself.
<ul>
<li><a href="fn.join.html"><code>join</code></a> is used to subdivide a task into two pieces.</li>
<li><a href="fn.scope.html"><code>scope</code></a> creates a scope within which you can create any number of parallel tasks.</li>
<li><a href="struct.ThreadPoolBuilder.html"><code>ThreadPoolBuilder</code></a> can be used to create your own thread pools or customize
the global one.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="basic-usage-and-the-rayon-prelude" class="section-header"><a href="#basic-usage-and-the-rayon-prelude">Basic usage and the Rayon prelude</a></h1>
<p>First, you will need to add <code>rayon</code> to your <code>Cargo.toml</code> and put
<code>extern crate rayon</code> in your main file (<code>lib.rs</code>, <code>main.rs</code>).</p>
<p>Next, to use parallel iterators or the other high-level methods,
you need to import several traits. Those traits are bundled into
the module <a href="prelude/index.html"><code>rayon::prelude</code></a>. It is recommended that you import
all of these traits at once by adding <code>use rayon::prelude::*</code> at
the top of each module that uses Rayon methods.</p>
<p>These traits give you access to the <code>par_iter</code> method which provides
parallel implementations of many iterative functions such as <a href="iter/trait.ParallelIterator.html#method.map"><code>map</code></a>,
<a href="iter/trait.ParallelIterator.html#method.for_each"><code>for_each</code></a>, <a href="iter/trait.ParallelIterator.html#method.filter"><code>filter</code></a>, <a href="iter/trait.ParallelIterator.html#method.fold"><code>fold</code></a>, and <a href="iter/trait.ParallelIterator.html#provided-methods">more</a>.</p>
<h1 id="crate-layout" class="section-header"><a href="#crate-layout">Crate Layout</a></h1>
<p>Rayon extends many of the types found in the standard library with
parallel iterator implementations. The modules in the <code>rayon</code>
crate mirror <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/"><code>std</code></a> itself: so, e.g., the <code>option</code> module in
Rayon contains parallel iterators for the <code>Option</code> type, which is
found in <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/index.html">the <code>option</code> module of <code>std</code></a>. Similarly, the
<code>collections</code> module in Rayon offers parallel iterator types for
<a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/collections/index.html">the <code>collections</code> from <code>std</code></a>. You will rarely need to access
these submodules unless you need to name iterator types
explicitly.</p>
