yes

What I want to do is to calculate the matrix product C=A*B' between two sparse matrices A=(A11 0 , A21 0) and B=(B11 0 , B21 0)  where C will be dense in the end but I just want to calculate some selected entries C_ij  of C. At the moment I extract submatricies for the corresponding rows and columns,
