Hello Matt,
I have changed the code as
ierr = MatSetOption(jacobian, MAT_IGNORE_ZERO_ENTRIES,
PETSC_TRUE);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = MatAssemblyBegin(jacobian, MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = MatAssemblyEnd(jacobian, MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
but still get the same result as before, the matrix still has 5776 nonzeros:
% Size = 100 100
2 % Nonzeros = 5776
3 zzz = zeros(5776,3);
Then I switch the order as
ierr = MatAssemblyBegin(jacobian, MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = MatAssemblyEnd(jacobian, MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr = MatSetOption(jacobian, MAT_IGNORE_ZERO_ENTRIES,
PETSC_TRUE);CHKERRQ(ierr);
nothing changed.
The version is 3.1-p8.
Thanks very much!
Best regards,
Rebecca
