# PetscSpaceEvaluate
Evaluate the basis functions and their derivatives (jet) at each point 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscfe.h"  
PetscErrorCode PetscSpaceEvaluate(PetscSpace sp, PetscInt npoints, const PetscReal points[], PetscReal B[], PetscReal D[], PetscReal H[])
```

## Input Parameters

- ***sp      -*** The `PetscSpace`
- ***npoints -*** The number of evaluation points, in reference coordinates
- ***points  -*** The point coordinates



## Output Parameters

- ***B -*** The function evaluations in a npoints x nfuncs array
- ***D -*** The derivative evaluations in a npoints x nfuncs x dim array
- ***H -*** The second derivative evaluations in a npoints x nfuncs x dim x dim array





## Note
Above nfuncs is the dimension of the space, and dim is the spatial dimension. The coordinates are given
on the reference cell, not in real space.
