[petsc-users] petsc4py for numpy array <-> MATDENSE binary

[Sajid Ali]

Hi,

I have a large (~25k x 25k x 50) 3D array that I want to store as binary
PETSc readable matrix using the MATDENSE format. I've currently achieved
this (for smaller arrays) by writing the matrix out to an ASCII file and
converting this ASCII file to binary, one number at a time using a C
script.

Does petsc4py support converting a 3d numpy array (complex valued) to
MATDENSE (MPI) binary format directly ?

I saw some discussion on this topic back in 2012 on the mailing list but
it's not clear to me what happened after that.

Thank You,
