<div dir="ltr">Thanks. I got it.<div><br></div><div>For the moment I have some general questions.<br></div><div><br></div><div>- I see that in this example all terms--diffusion and reactions--are put into RHSFunction. There is no IFunction. Is there a reason for that ? In which cases one should use IFunction or RHSFunction ? In ts/.../ex25.c, diffusion terms are defined in IFunction and reaction terms in RHSFunction. Why not here ?</div>
<div><br></div><div>- If only RHSFunction is used, how is it possible to define boundary conditions ? For instance, a Dirichlet boundary condition, u(i=0)=3. In ts/.../ex2.c, only RHSFunction is used and the boundary conditions are defined through u_t, </div>
<div><br></div><div>- In this type of problem, which TS scheme is recommended ? TSARKIMEX ?</div><div><br></div><div>- The option TSARKIMEXSetFullyImplicit is used. Why ? Does it help ?</div><div><br></div><div>Christophe</div>

I have put it into the next branch. So just download petsc from the bitbucket site with git and then do git checkout next<br>
<br>
The code won't work with the current PETSc release.<br>
