Idiom #56 Launch 1000 parallel tasks and wait for completion

Fork-join : launch the concurrent execution of procedure f with parameter i from 1 to 1000.
Tasks are independent and f(i) doesn't return any value.
Tasks need not run all at the same time, so you may use a pool.
Wait for the completion of the 1000 tasks and then print "Finished".

Do you know the best way to do this in your language ? New implementation...
