MPIBARRIER MPI Barrier

Usage

This function is used as a synchronization point for all processes in a group. All processes are blocked until every process calls mpibarrier. The general syntax for its use is

  mpibarrier(comm)

where comm is the communicator. If no communicator is provided, it defaults to MPI_COMM_WORLD.
