# MatCreateSNESMFMore
Creates a matrix-free matrix context for use with a `SNES` solver that uses the More method to compute an optimal h based on the noise of the function.  This matrix can be used as the Jacobian argument for the routine `SNESSetJacobian()`. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscsnes.h"   
PetscErrorCode MatCreateSNESMFMore(SNES snes, Vec x, Mat *J)
```

## Input Parameters

- ***snes -*** the `SNES` context
- ***x -*** vector where `SNES` solution is to be stored.



## Output Parameter

- ***J -*** the matrix-free matrix



## Options Database Keys

- ***-snes_mf_err <error_rel> -*** see `MatCreateSNESMF()`
- ***-snes_mf_umin <umin> -*** see `MatCreateSNESMF()`
- ***-snes_mf_compute_err -*** compute the square root or relative error in function
- ***-snes_mf_freq_err <freq> -*** set the frequency to recompute the parameters
- ***-snes_mf_jorge -*** use the method of Jorge More





## Notes
This is an experimental approach, use `MatCreateSNESMF()`.

The matrix-free matrix context merely contains the function pointers
and work space for performing finite difference approximations of
Jacobian-vector products, J(u)*a, via

```none
       J(u)*a = [J(u+h*a) - J(u)]/h,
   where by default
        h = error_rel*u'a/||a||^2                        if  |u'a| > umin*||a||_{1}
          = error_rel*umin*sign(u'a)*||a||_{1}/||a||^2   otherwise
   where
        error_rel = square root of relative error in function evaluation
        umin = minimum iterate parameter
   Alternatively, the differencing parameter, h, can be set using
   Jorge's nifty new strategy if one specifies the option
          -snes_mf_jorge
```


The user can set these parameters via `MatMFFDSetFunctionError()`.

The user should call `MatDestroy()` when finished with the matrix-free
matrix context.
