-Chapel is a general-purpose, compiled, high-level parallel programming language with built-in abstractions for shared- and distributed-memory parallelism. There are two styles of parallel programming in Chapel: (1) '''task parallelism''', in which parallelism is driven by ''programmer-specified tasks'', and (2) '''data parallelism''', in which parallelism is driven by ''computations over collections of data elements or their indices'' sitting in shared memory on one node or distributed among multiple nodes.
