NAME

       MPI_Group_range_incl -  Creates a new group from ranges of ranks in an  existing group

SYNOPSIS

       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_Group_range_incl(MPI_Group g, int n,
                              int ranges[][3], MPI_Group *png)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       g      - group (handle)
       n      - number of triplets in array ranges (integer)
       ranges -  a one-dimensional array of integer triplets, of the form (first rank, last rank,
              stride) indicating ranks in g or processes to be included in png

OUTPUT PARAMETER

       png    - new group derived from above, in the order defined by ranges (handle)

NOTE

       When a group is no longer being used, it should be freed with MPI_Group_free .

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.

ERRORS

       If  an  error occurs in an MPI function, the current MPI error handler is called to handle
       it.  By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job.  The error handler may be  changed
       with  MPI_Errhandler_set  ;  the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to
       cause error values to be returned (in C and Fortran; this error handler is less useful  in
       with  the  C++  MPI  bindings.   The predefined error handler MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS
       should be used in C++ if the error value needs to be recovered).  Note that MPI  does  not
       guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.

       All  MPI  routines  (except MPI_Wtime and MPI_Wtick ) return an error value; C routines as
       the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument.  The C++ bindings for
       MPI  do  not  return  error  values;  instead,  error  values are communicated by throwing
       exceptions of type MPI::Exception (but not by default).  Exceptions are only thrown if the
       error value is not MPI::SUCCESS .

       Note that if the MPI::ERRORS_RETURN handler is set in C++, while MPI functions will return
       upon an error, there will be no way to recover what the actual error value was.
       MPI_SUCCESS
              - No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
       MPI_ERR_GROUP
              - Null group passed to function.
       MPI_ERR_OTHER
              - This error is returned when some part of the LAM/MPI implementation is unable  to
              acquire memory.
       MPI_ERR_ARG
              -  Invalid  argument.  Some argument is invalid and is not identified by a specific
              error class.  This is typically a NULL pointer or other such error.
       MPI_ERR_RANK
              - Invalid source or destination rank.  Ranks must be between zero and the  size  of
              the  communicator  minus  one;  ranks  in  a  receive  (  MPI_Recv  ,  MPI_Irecv  ,
              MPI_Sendrecv , etc.) may also be MPI_ANY_SOURCE .

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

       The LAM Team would like the thank the MPICH Team for the handy  program  to  generate  man
       pages   ("doctext"  from  ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/sowing/sowing.tar.gz  ),  the  initial
       formatting, and some initial text for most of the MPI-1 man pages.
