Singular Manual: setcores

| #### D.2.10.2 setcores Procedure from library `resources.lib` (see resources_lib). Usage: setcores(n), n int Return: n. The number of available processor cores is set to n and n is returned. Note: The number of available processor cores must be at least 1. Reducing this number may take some time. This procedure should only be called in the main process of a Singular session and not within any task defined via tasks.lib. Example:
    LIB "resources.lib";
    setcores(2);
    ==> 2
    setcores(4);
    ==> 4
