## Overview

Text filter that demonstrates class pipeline. Example program reads a file containing decimal integers in text format, and changes each to its square.

## Files

square.cpp
  Source code for example.
gen_input.cpp
  Source code for sample input generation.
Makefile
  Makefile for building example.

## Directories

msvs
  Contains Microsoft* Visual Studio* 2010 workspace for building and running the example (Windows* systems only).
xcode
  Contains Xcode* IDE workspace for building and running the example (OS X* systems only).

## To Build

General build directions can be found here.

Two additional targets for this example:

`make gen_input`
  Create an input generator program that prints out a sequence of integers.
`make input.txt`
  Create an input file for the example (with help of `gen_input`).

## Usage

`square -h`
  Prints the help for command line options
`square [n-of-threads=value] [input-file=value] [output-file=value] [max-slice-size=value] [silent]`
`square [n-of-threads [input-file [output-file [max-slice-size]]]] [silent]`
  n-of-threads is the number of threads to use; a range of the form low[:high], where low and optional high are non-negative integers or 'auto' for the TBB default.
  input-file is an input file name.
  output-file is an output file name.
  max-slice-size is the maximum number of characters in one slice.
  silent - no output except elapsed time.
`gen_input [LN] > inputfile`
  Generate a file named inputfile consisting of LN lines each containing one integer. If not specified, LN is assumed to be 1000000.
To run a short version of this example, e.g., for use with Intel® Parallel Inspector:
  Build a debug version of the example (see the build directions).
  Prepare an inputfile with about 5,000 lines of text (see the instruction above).
  Run it with this inputfile and the desired number of threads, e.g., `square 4 inputfile outputfile`.
