# MatZeroRowsLocalIS
Zeros all entries (except possibly the main diagonal) of a set of rows of a matrix; using local numbering of rows. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscmat.h" 
PetscErrorCode MatZeroRowsLocalIS(Mat mat, IS is, PetscScalar diag, Vec x, Vec b)
```
Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***mat -*** the matrix
- ***is -*** index set of rows to remove
- ***diag -*** value put in all diagonals of eliminated rows
- ***x -*** optional vector of solutions for zeroed rows (other entries in vector are not used)
- ***b -*** optional vector of right hand side, that will be adjusted by provided solution





## Notes
Before calling `MatZeroRowsLocalIS()`, the user must first set the
local-to-global mapping by calling `MatSetLocalToGlobalMapping()`, this is often already set for matrices obtained with `DMCreateMatrix()`.

See `MatZeroRows()` for details on how this routine operates.
