Is there a way to construct parallel loops, that is loops that run at the same time, independent of each other, without threading in java?

I read the condition of no threads, but why not? They are fairly easy to construct, is there some restriction against them?

Fork

um, threads. no other way except to do a step on each loop serially.

there is no 'fork' in java

threading or some type of asynch RPC would really be the only ways

you could do it with RMI.

if you don't mind me asking... why can't you use threads?

teacher said it would mess up the grading script.

lame script

tell the teacher to quit squelching your creativity because he's too lazy to grade manually!1

I'd like to see the script that checks if you meet the whole parallel loops spec.

one way in
one way out

I ended up doing it in a recursive inefficient manner..
