To install MPI is rather easy on hardware running unix/linux as operating systems, follow simply the instructions from the OpenMPI website. See also subsequent slides. When you have made sure you have installed MPI on your PC/laptop,
# Compile and link
mpic++ -O3 -o nameofprog.x nameofprog.cpp
# run code with for example 8 processes using mpirun/mpiexec
mpiexec -n 8 ./nameofprog.x
