MatCreate#

Creates a matrix where the type is determined from either a call to MatSetType() or from the options database with a call to MatSetFromOptions(). The default matrix type is MATAIJ, using the routines MatCreateSeqAIJ() or MatCreateAIJ() if you do not set a type in the options database. If you never call MatSetType() or MatSetFromOptions() it will generate an error when you try to use the matrix.

Synopsis#

#include "petscmat.h"  
PetscErrorCode MatCreate(MPI_Comm comm, Mat *A)

Collective

Input Parameter#

  • comm - MPI communicator

Output Parameter#

  • A - the matrix

Options Database Keys#

See the manpages for particular formats (e.g., MATSEQAIJ) for additional format-specific options.
