Matthew Scarpino wrote very good article as introduction to OpenCL:
http://drdobbs.com/high-performance-computing/231002854?pgno=1

He provides C code, which I translated to ThinBASIC and attached to this post. So as you can see, when eager to develop cutting edge technologies, C is not the only choice, you can happily use ThinBASIC.
I recommend to read the article first and then download the ThinBASIC example below and examine the code for ideal learning experience.

Important note: The code requires the OpenCL headers (http://www.thinbasic.com/community/showthread.php?10159-OpenCL-Headers-Updated-Sep-04-2011).

Thanks for opencl work Petr. I have seen some impressive demos of opencl,but I must admit it is tough to grasp, but your enthusiasm for it and links will keep me chasingafter it.
