Parallel
Python是Python进行分布式计算的开源模块,能够将计算压力分布到多核CPU或集群的多台计算机上,能够非常方便的在内网中搭建一个自组织的分布式计算平台。先从多核计算开始,普通的Python应用程序只能够使用一个CPU进程,而通过Parallel
Python能够很方便的将计算扩展到多个CPU进程中

# Desc: This program demonstrates parallel computations with pp module
# It calculates the sum of prime numbers below a given integer in parallel
