[petsc-users] MATELEMENTAL strange behaviour

Bernard:
With your code, I reproduced error and found that the default
MAT_ROW_ORIENTED for MatSetValues() is changed to MAT_COLUMN_ORIENTED. This
is a bug in our library. I'll fix it.

You can add
MatSetOption(C,MAT_ROW_ORIENTED,PETSC_TRUE);
before 2nd call of matrixC(C,t).

Thanks for reporting the bug.
