I need do it for many. Actually, we don't consider a vector. Generally, if A is dense matrix (nonzero entries) and B is sparse matrix, MatGetRow() doesn't work when doing A.*B or A./B directly, right?<br>Thanks a lot.<br>

</div>You need to do this for a small number of rows (values of i), or for<br>
many? Since vectors are dense, and since MatGetValues only provides the<br>
local part, this is not scalable.<br>
<br>
What is the problem you are trying to solve with this algebraic<br>
manipulation? There is probably a scalable way to formulate the<br>
higher-level objective to avoid these shenanigans.<br>
