def channel(obj):
"""
Return the parallel region global channel number `obj` is executing in.
The channel number is in the range of 0 to ``max_channel(obj)``.
When the parallel region is not nested this is the same value
as ``local_channel(obj)``.
If the parallel region is nested the value will be between
zero and ``(width*N - 1)`` where N is the number of times the
parallel region has been replicated due to nesting.
Args:
obj: Instance of a class executing within Streams.
Returns:
int: Parallel region global channel number or -1 if not located in a parallel region.
