Examples

This example demonstrates several approaches to implementing a parallel loop using multiple language constructs.

using System.Threading.Tasks;   
class Test
{
    static int N = 1000;

    static void TestMethod()
    {
        // Using a named method.
        Parallel.For(0, N, Method2);

        // Using an anonymous method.
        Parallel.For(0, N, delegate(int i)
        {
            // Do Work.
        });

        // Using a lambda expression.
        Parallel.For(0, N, i =>
        {
            // Do Work.
        });
    }

    static void Method2(int i)
    {
        // Do work.
    }
}

Imports System.Threading.Tasks

Module Module1

    Sub Main()
        Dim N As Integer = 1000

        ' Using a named method
        Parallel.For(0, N, AddressOf Method2)

        ' Using a lambda expression.
        Parallel.For(0, N, Sub(i)
                               ' Do Work
                           End Sub)
    End Sub

    Sub Method2(ByVal i As Integer)
        ' Do work.
    End Sub

End Module

Remarks

The Parallel class provides library-based data parallel replacements for common operations such as for loops, for each loops, and execution of a set of statements.
