#Suppose you have a collection of tasks, which in this example I'll assume is just running a function f.
#If these tasks are completely separate and independent the most then you can parallelize them easily.
#In this gist I'll show the simplest possible way to do this using mpi4py.
#There are better ways to do this, in particular if the tasks vary significantly in time taken to run.

import mpi4py.MPI

def f(i):
  "A fake task - in this case let just open a file and write a number to it"
  #open file with name based on task number
