# VecRestoreArray1dWrite
Restores a vector after `VecGetArray1dWrite()` has been called. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscvec.h"   
PetscErrorCode VecRestoreArray1dWrite(Vec x, PetscInt m, PetscInt mstart, PetscScalar *a[])
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***x -*** the vector
- ***m -*** first dimension of two dimensional array
- ***mstart -*** first index you will use in first coordinate direction (often 0)
- ***a -*** location of pointer to array obtained from `VecGetArray1d()`





## Notes
For regular PETSc vectors this routine does not involve any copies. For
any special vectors that do not store local vector data in a contiguous
array, this routine will copy the data back into the underlying
vector data structure from the array obtained with `VecGetArray1d()`.

This routine actually zeros out the `a` pointer.
