In this chapter, we’ll look at the parallel algorithms provided by the C++17 standard, so let’s start, without further ado.
The C++17 standard added the concept of parallel algorithms to the C++ Standard Library. These are additional overloads of many of the functions that operate on ranges, such as std::find, std::transform and std::reduce. The parallel versions have the same signature as the “normal” single-threaded ...
