Matrix is dense.<br>

<br>
Yes, I want all row vectors on all processes. In a dense matrix,<br>
should I still wrap a Vec around the values? I know I should use<br>
scatter but I couldn't even wrap a Vec around them.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I would do</div><div><br></div><div> MatGetSize(&N);</div><div> MatGetLocalSize(&m);</div><div> <a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatDenseGetArray.html">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatDenseGetArray.html</a></div><div> <create vector of local size m*N></div><div> <a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecPlaceArray.html">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecPlaceArray.html</a><br></div><div> <a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecScatterCreateToAll.html">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecScatterCreateToAll.html</a></div><div> <do scatter></div><div> <a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecResetArray.html#VecResetArray">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Vec/VecResetArray.html#VecResetArray</a></div><div> <a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatCreateDense.html">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatCreateDense.html</a></div><div> <use it></div><div> <destroy matrix></div><div> <destroy vector from CreateToAll></div><div><br></div><div> Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div> Matt</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
