Answer 1

You'll need a reference to System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel

You can use nuget to get this.
Alternatively, add the following to your project.json

  "dependencies": {
    //
    "System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel": "4.0.1"
  },

Note: This is now out of date, since there's no more project.json

As per comment, add this to your csproj:

<PackageReference Include="System.Threading.Tasks.Parallel" Version="4.3.0" />
