Are the tools of Control.Parallel comparable to OpenMP?

Fair question. I copied the parallel version from:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.6/html/users_guide/lang-parallel.html

but pulled the non-parallel version from a text.

Thank, Daniel

Multiple threads are in evidence in my system monitor, but I wonder why I'm getting two different answers, one twice the other. The first is the parallel solution and the second is the non.

Why do you add n1+n2+1 in the parallel program, but only n1+n2 in the non-parallel one ?

===========

{-
import Control.Parallel

nfib :: Int -> Int
nfib n | n <= 1 = 1
       | otherwise = par n1 (pseq n2 (n1 + n2 + 1))
                     where n1 = nfib (n-1)
                           n2 = nfib (n-2)
-}

nfib :: Int -> Int
nfib n | n <= 1 = 1
       | otherwise = nfib (n-1) + nfib (n-2)

main = do putStrLn $ show $ nfib 39
