omp_get_num_threads – Size of the active team

Description:

Returns the number of threads in the current team. In a sequential section of the program omp_get_num_threads returns 1.

The default team size may be initialized at startup by the OMP_NUM_THREADS environment variable. At runtime, the size of the current team may be set either by the NUM_THREADS clause or by omp_set_num_threads. If none of the above were used to define a specific value and OMP_DYNAMIC is disabled, one thread per CPU online is used.

int omp_get_num_threads(void);
