  How to use a par statement across multiple tiles

• boards

  Unless otherwise specified, this example runs on the SliceKIT Core Board, but can easily be run on any XMOS device by using a different XN file.

The par construct takes a set of statements (usually function calls) and runs them in parallel. By default each task runs on a separate logical core.

The on construct allows you to place tasks on different tiles. For example:

par {
  on tile[0]: task1(5);
  on tile[1]: task2();
}

You can only do this from the main function and must include the platform.h header file.
