Parallel Calculations

Arithmetic Operations in Parallel Algorithms

Another place where we can us parallel algorithms is CalcTotalOrder().

Instead of std::accumulate we can use std::transform_reduce.

As mentioned in the Parallel Algorithms chapter, the floating point sum operation is not associative. However, in our case, the results should be stable enough to give 2 decimal places of precision. If you need better accuracy and numerical stability, please consider using a different method.
