[petsc-users] Problem in loading Matrix Market format

[Eda Oktay]

Hello,

I am trying to load matrix in Matrix Market format. I found an example on
mat file  (ex78) whih can be tested by using .dat file. Since .dat file and
.mtx file are similar  in structure (specially afiro_A.dat file is similar
to amesos2_test_mat0.mtx since they both have 3 columns and the columns
represent the same properties), I tried to run ex78 by using
amesos2_test_mat0.mtx instead of afiro_A.dat. However, I got the error
"Badly formatted input file". Here is the full error message:

I know there is also an example (ex72) for Matrix Market format but in
description, it is only proper for symmmetric and lower triangle, so I
decided to use ex78.

Best regards,
