SerialParam-class {BiocParallel} | R Documentation

## Enable serial evaluation

### Description

This class is used to parameterize serial evaluation, primarily to facilitate easy transition from parallel to serial code.

### Usage

    SerialParam(stop.on.error = TRUE, log = FALSE,
        threshold = "INFO", logdir = NA_character_, progressbar = FALSE)

### Arguments

`stop.on.error` | A `logical` determining behavior on error; see `SnowParam`.
`log` | `logical(1)` Enable logging; see `SnowParam`.
`threshold` | `character(1)` Logging threshold; see `SnowParam`.
`logdir` | `character(1)` Log files directory. When not provided, log messages are returned to stdout.
`progressbar` | `logical(1)` Enable progress bar (based on plyr:::progress_text).

### Constructor

  `SerialParam()`:

  Return an object to be used for serial evaluation of otherwise parallel functions such as `bplapply`, `bpvec`.

### Methods

The following generics are implemented and perform as documented on the corresponding help page (e.g., `?bpworkers`): `bpworkers`. `bpisup`, `bpstart`, `bpstop`, are implemented, but do not have any side-effects.

### Examples

    p <- SerialParam()
    simplify2array(bplapply(1:10, sqrt, BPPARAM=p))
    bpvec(1:10, sqrt, BPPARAM=p)
