Algorithms for Parallel Processing
Hey, I just wanted to know how many algorithms there are that cannot be accelerated by parallel processing. I know one such algorithm is Euclid's Algorithm (for GCF). does anyone know any other algorithms that cannot be accelerated by pp? if so please list the names and a general sentence of what they do.

$video_info->hw_available() # 1 if Hardware Accelerated Surfaces available
Is it possible to create hardware surfaces ?
wm_available
$video_info->wm_available() # 1 if Window Manager available
Is there a window manager available ?
blit_hw
$video_info->blit_hw()
Are hardware to hardware blits accelerated ?
blit_hw_CC
$video_info->blit_hw_CC()
Are hardware to hardware colorkey blits accelerated ?
blit_hw_A
$video_info->blit_hw_A()

video_mem
my $video_mem = $video_info->video_mem();
Total amount of video memory in Kilobytes, should be accessed only if hw_available == 1, otherwise it is equal to 0
vfmt
my $vd_pixel_format = $video_info->vfmt();
"SDL::PixelFormat" of the video device
current_w, current_h
$video_info->current_w();
$video_info->current_h();
Width and height of the current video mode, or of the desktop mode if "SDL_GetVideoInfo" was called before "SDL::Video::set_video_mode"
(available since SDL 1.2.10)
