You can't with that function. It would be much mich more complicated if you
could, and I am not sure
it is worth it for that function. The reason is that you would need index
information to offset into the
connectivity list, and that would need to be replicated to some extent so
that all processes know what
the others are doing. Possible, but complicated.

Maybe I can help suggest something for what you are trying to do?

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
