# MatSeqAIJGetArray
gives read/write access to the array where the data for a `MATSEQAIJ` matrix is stored 
## Synopsis
```

## Output Parameter

- ***array -*** pointer to the data





## Fortran Note
`MatSeqAIJGetArray()` Fortran binding is deprecated (since PETSc 3.19), use `MatSeqAIJGetArrayF90()`
