MPI_Finalize(3) MPI MPI_Finalize(3) NAME MPI_Finalize - Terminates MPI execution environment SYNOPSIS #include "mpi.h" int MPI_Finalize() NOTES All processes must call this routine before exiting. The number of processes running after this routine is called is undefined; it is best not to perform much more than a return rc after calling MPI_Finalize . NOTES FOR FORTRAN All MPI routines in Fortran (except for MPI_WTIME and MPI_WTICK ) have an additional argument ierr at the end of the argument list. ierr is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine in C. In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are invoked with the call statement. All MPI objects (e.g., MPI_Datatype , MPI_Comm ) are of type INTEGER in Fortran.
