FLoops.jl 0.2 defaults to a parallel loop; i.e., it uses a parallel executor (e.g., ThreadedEx) when the executor is not specified and the explicit sequential form @floop begin ... end is not used.

That is to say, @floop without @reduce such as

@floop for i in eachindex(ys, xs)
    ys[i] = f(xs[i])
end

is now executed in parallel by default.

looks like it implies that with a @reduce it doesn't?

• The doc sometimes talks about @reduce() do end and sometimes about @reduce and @init. Is the latter new syntax for the former?

I guess I can clarify it by saying

@floop even without @reduce

or something.

I don't remember if I implemented only @reduce() do first or I had @reduce acc += x from the getgo. @init is relatively new.

Current documentation is embarrassingly sparse. Probably these tutorials are actually better at explaining the API:
