MatCopy

Copys a matrix to another matrix.

Synopsis

#include "petscmat.h" 
PetscErrorCode MatCopy(Mat A,Mat B,MatStructure str)
Collective on Mat Many br

Input Parameters

A - the matrix Many br
str - SAME_NONZERO_PATTERN or DIFFERENT_NONZERO_PATTERN Many br

Output Parameter

B -where the copy is put Many br

Notes

If you use SAME_NONZERO_PATTERN then the two matrices had better have the Many brsame nonzero pattern or the routine will crash. Many br

MatCopy() copies the matrix entries of a matrix to another existing Many brmatrix (after first zeroing the second matrix). A related routine is Many brMatConvert(), which first creates a new matrix and then copies the data. Many br
