MPI_CART_CREATE returns a handle to a new communicator to which the
Cartesian topology information is attached. If reorder = false then
the rank of each process in the new group is identical to its rank in the old
group. Otherwise, the function may reorder the processes (possibly so as to
choose a good embedding of the virtual topology onto the physical machine).
If the total size of the Cartesian grid is smaller than the size of the group
of comm, then some processes are returned MPI_COMM_NULL, in
analogy to MPI_COMM_SPLIT.
If ndims is zero then a zero-dimensional Cartesian topology is created. The
call is erroneous if it specifies a grid that is larger than the group size or if
ndims is negative.
