The opposite function is assignment:
vv = u.compute_vertex_values()
u.assign_vertex_values(vv)
along the same lines:
cv = u.compute_cell_values()
u.assign_cell_values(cv)
More general (for any point-valued element):
px = u.compute_pointdof_coordinates()
pv = u.compute_pointdof_values()
pv[i] = f(px[i])
u.assign_pointdof_values(pv)
Btw Johan, here's why Garth and Jan (and I) say that vertex_to_dof_map is a
map from dof index to vertex index (*components):
u.vector()[:] = vertex_data[vertex_to_dof_map[:]]
# is equivalent to:
for idof in range(len(u.vector())):
ivertex = vertex_to_dof_map[idof]
u.vector()[idof] = vertex_data[ivertex]
Although you _use_ it to map vertex data to dof data, the array _is_ a map
from dof index to vertex index.
