Task parallelism will be split between morning and afternoon. Try to get as far as you can in the morning, and then resume after the mid-day Zoom session. In this chapter (task parallelism) I suggest skipping “Parallelizing the heat transfer equation” section at the end to save time, until then we cover the major concepts in task parallelism.

Try to do all exercises in the lessons. The solutions are posted at the end of each page.
