However, a multithreaded program can have different parts executing at the same time if hardware allows that, which makes it sort of a parallel program. And other thing is saying that parallel programming divides the main task into smaller parts can be true for task parallelism, however in data parallelism you do not break the task down to small units of execution but small units of data.
