You could also do a custom range that makes a one-dimensional range (aka
iota out of your nested loops) and then process this with parallel.
Another way (more similar to Ali's solution) would be to write the
nested loops as you have them, but collect the parameters for the work
in an array or something and then process this array in parallel.
Kind regards,
