## Overview

A simple example that uses the parallel_for template in a substring matching program. For each position in a string, the program displays the length of the largest matching substring elsewhere in the string. The program also displays the location of a largest match for each position. Consider the string "babba" as an example. Starting at position 0, "ba" is the largest substring with a match elsewhere in the string (position 3).

## Files

sub_string_finder.cpp
  The example as it appears in the Getting Started Guide.
sub_string_finder_extended.cpp
  An example similar to the one in the Getting Started Guide, but with an added sequential implementation. The two implementations are both timed, by using tick_count, and the speedup of the parallel version is calculated and displayed.
sub_string_finder_pretty.cpp
  An example similar to the one in the Getting Started Guide, but with more attractive printing of the results.
Makefile
  Makefile for building example.

## To Build

General build directions can be found here.

## Usage

`sub_string_finder`
  Runs the example as it appears in the Getting Started Guide.
`sub_string_finder_extended`
  Runs the extended example with the added sequential implementation.
`sub_string_finder_pretty`
  Runs the similar example with more attractive printing of the results.
To run a short version of this example, e.g., for use with Intel® Threading Tools:
  Build a debug version of the `sub_string_finder_pretty` example (see the build directions).
  Run it, e.g., `sub_string_finder_pretty`.
