VecTaggerCDFMethod#

Determines what method is used to compute absolute values from cumulative distribution values (e.g., what value is the preimage of .95 in the cdf).

Synopsis#

typedef enum {
  VECTAGGER_CDF_GATHER,
  VECTAGGER_CDF_ITERATIVE,
  VECTAGGER_CDF_NUM_METHODS
} VecTaggerCDFMethod;

VECTAGGER_CDF_GATHER - gather the data to MPI rank 0, perform the computation and broadcast the result
VECTAGGER_CDF_ITERATIVE - compute the results on all ranks iteratively using MPI_Allreduce()

Relevant only in parallel: in serial it is directly computed.

In PETSc enums of this type are refered to with the term type, not method.
