parallelApply -- apply a function to each element in parallel

• Usage:

  parallelApply(L,f)

• Inputs:
  • L, a basic list,
  • f, a function,
• Optional inputs:
  • Strategy => null or a string, default value null
• Outputs:
  • a list or a basic list, If the Strategy option is null, then this behaves like toList apply(L,f), with the result computed in parallel in chunks using all cores. If it is the string "raw", then this behaves like apply(apply(L, e -> schedule(f, e)), taskResult).
