Singular Manual: addcores

| #### D.2.11.1 addcores Procedure from library `resources.lib` (see resources_lib). Usage: addcores(n), n int Return: the adjusted number of available processor cores, after n has been added to it. If n is negative, this number is reduced. 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(4);
    ==> 4
    addcores(-2);
    ==> 2
