Datatype for a struct / derived type

The skeleton code provided in struct_type.c or struct_type.F90 defines a struct (C) / derived type (Fortran)

  1. Implement a custom MPI datatype, and send a single struct / derived type between two processes. Verify that the communication is performed succesfully.

  2. Next, try to send an array of structs / derived types. Make sure that the extent of the datatype is correct (you may use MPI_Type_get_extent and MPI_Get_address for checking).

  3. Implement the same send by sending just a stream of bytes (type MPI_BYTE). Verify correctness and compare the performance of these two approaches.
