:ref:`MPI_Group_range_incl` |mdash| Creates a new group from ranges of ranks in an existing group.

group
: Group (handle).n
: Number of triplets in array ranges (integer).ranges
: A one-dimensional array of integer triplets, of the form (first rank, last rank, stride) indicating ranks in group or processes to be included in newgroup.
newgroup
: New group derived from above, in the order defined by ranges (handle).ierror
: Fortran only: Error status (integer).
If ranges consist of the triplets
(first1, last1, stride1), ..., (firstn, lastn, striden)
then newgroup consists of the sequence of processes in group with ranks
last(1)-first(1)
first(1), first(1) + stride(1),..., first(1) + ---------------- stride(1),...
stride(1)
last(n)-first(n)
first(n), first(n) + stride(n),..., first(n) + ---------------- stride(n).
stride(n)
Each computed rank must be a valid rank in group and all computed ranks must be distinct, or else the program is erroneous. Note that we may have first(i) > last(i), and stride(i) may be negative, but cannot be zero.
The functionality of this routine is specified to be equivalent to expanding the array of ranges to an array of the included ranks and passing the resulting array of ranks and other arguments to :ref:`MPI_Group_incl`. A call to :ref:`MPI_Group_incl` is equivalent to a call to :ref:`MPI_Group_range_incl` with each rank i in ranks replaced by the triplet (i,i,1) in the argument ranges.
This implementation does not currently check to see that the list of ranges to include are valid ranks in the group.
