# DMLocalizeCoordinate
If a mesh is periodic (a torus with lengths L_i, some of which can be infinite), project the coordinate onto [0, L_i) in each dimension. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdm.h"          
PetscErrorCode DMLocalizeCoordinate(DM dm, const PetscScalar in[], PetscBool endpoint, PetscScalar out[])
```

## Input Parameters

- ***dm     -*** The `DM`
- ***in     -*** The input coordinate point (dim numbers)
- ***endpoint -*** Include the endpoint L_i



## Output Parameter

- ***out -*** The localized coordinate point
