setDoPar

A function that implements the functionality of <code>%dopar%</code>.

Data to be passed to the registered function.

data

Function that retrieves information about the backend.

info

The <code>setDoPar</code> function is used to register a parallel backend with the
foreach package. This isn't normally executed by the user. Instead, packages
that provide a parallel backend provide a function named <code>registerDoPar</code>
that calls <code>setDoPar</code> using the appropriate arguments.

utilities

Support for the foreach looping construct.  Foreach is an
idiom that allows for iterating over elements in a collection,
without the use of an explicit loop counter.  This package in
particular is intended to be used for its return value, rather
than for its side effects.  In that sense, it is similar to the
standard lapply function, but doesn't require the evaluation
of a function.  Using foreach without side effects also
facilitates executing the loop in parallel.
