Programmer Guide Sample Code Fix

Issue #213 resolved
Alexander Ding created an issue

This is a very small detail. On page 9 of the Programmer's Guide, the code for a red-black solver

for (long stepi = 0; stepi < MAX_ITER; stepi++) {
  // alternate between red and black
  int start = stepi % 2;
  // get the values for the ghost cells
  if (!start) u[0] = upcxx::rget(uL + block).wait();
  else u[n_local - 1] = upcxx::rget(uR + 1).wait();
  // some more stuff

Doesn't fill in the ghost cell of both ends in each iteration. If block is even this would be fine, but if block is odd this results in not updating the value of a ghost cell that is used for computation.

It's not a big deal, but it's kind of confusing to a new reader.
