title: Implementation of "parfor" type loop in Julia
body: <p>I am trying to implement a parallel for loop in Julia. I am familiar with MATLAB coding but not with Julia. I have noticed that MATLAB requires cell type data structure to make the parallel code run faster. I have the following doubts:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>What is the alternative for "parfor" in Julia? Is there any package required to do so?</p></li>
  <li><p>Can we use "cell" in Julia? (To distribute the memory allocation, so that each memory location can be accessed independently.)</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Any reference material would also be helpful.</p>
