code indicates the procedure for setting user-defined subdomains. Input

solving a linear system
Reads a PETSc matrix and vector from a file and solves a linear system.
This version first preloads and solves a small system, then loads
another (larger) system and solves it as well. This example illustrates
preloading of instructions with the smaller system so that more accurate
performance monitoring can be done with the larger one (that actually
is the system of interest). See the 'Performance Hints' chapter of the
users manual for a discussion of preloading. Input parameters include
-f0 <input_file> : first file to load (small system)
-f1 <input_file> : second file to load (larger system)
-nearnulldim <0> : number of vectors in the near-null space immediately following matrix
-trans : solve transpose system instead

well as the use of different preconditioner and linear system
matrices. This example also illustrates how to save PETSc objects
in common blocks.
writing a user-defined nonlinear solver
Solves a nonlinear system in parallel with a user-defined
Newton method that uses KSP to solve the linearized Newton sytems. This solver
is a very simplistic inexact Newton method. The intent of this code is to
demonstrate the repeated solution of linear sytems with the same nonzero pattern.
This is NOT the recommended approach for solving nonlinear problems with PETSc!
We urge users to employ the SNES component for solving nonlinear problems whenever
possible, as it offers many advantages over coding nonlinear solvers independently.
