## Enum documentation

### enum class tf::TaskPriority: unsigned

enumeration of all task priority values

A priority is an enumerated value of type `unsigned`. Currently, Taskflow defines three priority levels, `HIGH`, `NORMAL`, and `LOW`, starting from 0, 1, to 2. That is, the lower the value, the higher the priority.

Enumerators |
--- | ---
HIGH | value of the highest priority (i.e., 0)
NORMAL | value of the normal priority (i.e., 1)
LOW | value of the lowest priority (i.e., 2)
MAX | conventional value for iterating priority values

### enum class tf::TaskType: int

enumeration of all task types

Enumerators |
--- | ---
PLACEHOLDER | placeholder task type
STATIC | static task type
DYNAMIC | dynamic (subflow) task type
CONDITION | condition task type
MODULE | module task type
ASYNC | asynchronous task type
UNDEFINED | undefined task type (for internal use only)

### enum class tf::PipeType: int

enumeration of all pipe types

Enumerators |
--- | ---
PARALLEL | parallel type
SERIAL | serial type

### enum class tf::cudaTaskType: int

enumeration of all cudaTask types

Enumerators |
--- | ---
EMPTY | empty task type
HOST | host task type
MEMSET | memory set task type
MEMCPY | memory copy task type
KERNEL | memory copy task type
SUBFLOW | subflow (child graph) task type
CAPTURE | capture task type
UNDEFINED | undefined task type

## Typedef documentation

Guided partitioner can achieve decent performance for most parallel algorithms, especially for those with irregular and unbalanced workload per iteration.

## Function documentation

###
template<typename T, typename... ArgsT>

helper function to create an instance derived from tf::WorkerInterface

Template parameters
T | type derived from tf::WorkerInterface
ArgsT | argument types to construct `T`
Parameters
args | arguments to forward to the constructor of `T`

### const char* tf::to_string(TaskType type)

    TaskType::PLACEHOLDER     ->  "placeholder"
    TaskType::STATIC          ->  "static"
    TaskType::DYNAMIC         ->  "subflow"
    TaskType::CONDITION       ->  "condition"
    TaskType::MODULE          ->  "module"

###
template<typename Input, typename Output, typename C>
auto tf::make_data_pipe(PipeType d, C&& callable)

function to construct a data pipe (tf::DataPipe)

Template parameters
Input | input data type
Output | output data type
C | callable type

tf::make_data_pipe is a helper function to create a data pipe (tf::DataPipe) in a data-parallel pipeline (tf::DataPipeline). The first argument specifies the direction of the data pipe, either tf::PipeType::SERIAL or tf::PipeType::PARALLEL, and the second argument is a callable to invoke by the pipeline scheduler. Input and output data types are specified via template parameters, which will always be decayed by the library to its original form for storage purpose. The callable must take the input data type in its first argument and returns a value of the output data type.

    tf::make_data_pipe<int, std::string>(
      tf::PipeType::SERIAL,
      [](int& input) {
        return std::to_string(input + 100);
      }
    );

The callable can additionally take a reference of tf::Pipeflow, which allows you to query the runtime information of a stage task, such as its line number and token number.

    tf::make_data_pipe<int, std::string>(
      tf::PipeType::SERIAL,
      [](int& input, tf::Pipeflow& pf) {
        printf("token=%lu, line=%lu\n", pf.token(), pf.line());
        return std::to_string(input + 100);
      }
    );

Performs a key-value merge that copies elements from `[a_keys_first, a_keys_last)` and `[b_keys_first, b_keys_last)` into a single range, `[c_keys_first, c_keys_last + (a_keys_last - a_keys_first) + (b_keys_last - b_keys_first))` such that the resulting range is in ascending key order.

At the same time, the merge copies elements from the two associated ranges `[a_vals_first + (a_keys_last - a_keys_first))` and `[b_vals_first + (b_keys_last - b_keys_first))` into a single range, `[c_vals_first, c_vals_first + (a_keys_last - a_keys_first) + (b_keys_last - b_keys_first))` such that the resulting range is in ascending order implied by each input element's associated key.

For example, assume:

- `a_keys` = {1, 8};
- `a_vals` = {2, 1};
- `b_keys` = {3, 7};
- `b_vals` = {3, 4};

After the merge, we have:

- `c_keys` = {1, 3, 7, 8}
- `c_vals` = {2, 3, 4, 1}

###
template<typename P, typename K, typename V = cudaEmpty>

Parameters

template<typename P, typename K_it, typename V_it, typename C>
void tf::cuda_sort_by_key(P&& p, K_it k_first, K_it k_last, V_it v_first, C comp, void* buf)

performs asynchronous key-value sort on a range of items

Template parameters
P | execution policy type
K_it | key iterator type
V_it | value iterator type
C | comparator type
Parameters
p | execution policy
k_first | iterator to the beginning of the key range
k_last | iterator to the end of the key range
v_first | iterator to the beginning of the value range
comp | binary comparator
buf | pointer to the temporary buffer

Sorts key-value elements in `[k_first, k_last)` and `[v_first, v_first + (k_last - k_first))` into ascending key order using the given comparator `comp`. If `i` and `j` are any two valid iterators in `[k_first, k_last)` such that `i` precedes `j`, and `p` and `q` are iterators in `[v_first, v_first + (k_last - k_first))` corresponding to `i` and `j` respectively, then `comp(*j, *i)` evaluates to `false`.

For example, assume:

- `keys` are `{1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7}`
- `values` are `{'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'}`

After sort:

- `keys` are `{1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8}`
- `values` are `{'a', 'c', 'b', 'e', 'f', 'd'}`

###

C | comparator type
Parameters
p | execution policy

###
template<typename P, typename I, typename U>
void tf::cuda_find_if(P&& p, I first, I last, unsigned* idx, U op)

finds the index of the first element that satisfies the given criteria

Template parameters
P | execution policy type
I | input iterator type
U | unary operator type
Parameters
p | execution policy
first | iterator to the beginning of the range
last | iterator to the end of the range
idx | pointer to the index of the found element
op | unary operator which returns `true` for the required element

The function launches kernels asynchronously to find the index `idx` of the first element in the range `[first, last)` such that `op(*(first+idx))` is true. This is equivalent to the parallel execution of the following loop:

    unsigned idx = 0;
    for(; first != last; ++first, ++idx) {
      if (p(*first)) {
        return idx;
      }
    }
    return idx;

O | comparator type
Parameters
p | execution policy object
first | iterator to the beginning of the range
last | iterator to the end of the range
idx | solution index of the minimum element
op | comparison function object
buf | pointer to the buffer

The function launches kernels asynchronously to find the smallest element in the range `[first, last)` using the given comparator `op`. You need to provide a buffer that holds at least tf::cuda_min_element_bufsz bytes for internal use. The function is equivalent to a parallel execution of the following loop:

    if(first == last) {
      return 0;
    }
    auto smallest = first;
    for (++first; first != last; ++first) {
      if (op(*first, *smallest)) {
        smallest = first;
      }
    }
    return std::distance(first, smallest);

O | comparator type
Parameters
p | execution policy object
first | iterator to the beginning of the range
last | iterator to the end of the range
idx | solution index of the maximum element
op | comparison function object
buf | pointer to the buffer

The function launches kernels asynchronously to find the largest element in the range `[first, last)` using the given comparator `op`. You need to provide a buffer that holds at least tf::cuda_max_element_bufsz bytes for internal use. The function is equivalent to a parallel execution of the following loop:

    if(first == last) {
      return 0;
    }
    auto largest = first;
    for (++first; first != last; ++first) {
      if (op(*largest, *first)) {
        largest = first;
      }
    }
    return std::distance(first, largest);
