Scatter; the one-to-all scatter operation is performed in MPI using the MPI_Scatter function.
int MPI_Scatter(void *sendbuf, int sendcount, MPI_Datatype senddatatype, void *recvbuf, int recvcount, MPI_Datatype recvdatatype, int source, MPI_Comm comm)
The source process sends a different part of the send buffer sendbuf to each processes, including itself.
The data that are received are stored in recvbuf.
Process i receives sendcount contiguous elements of type senddatatype starting from the i * sendcount location of the sendbuf of the source process (assuming that sendbuf is of the same type as senddatatype).
