I am having a little trouble, or confusion, with the MatIsSymmetric function. I am getting the reverse behaviour from this routine that I expect. I am convinced I have a symmetric matrix, but the answer I get from this function is always zero - ie, PetscTruth = PetscFalse.
Why, if PETSC_YES is an alias for PETSC_TRUE, do they have opposite behaviour according to the documentation? That doen't seem right. What is the idea here? I there an error in the documentation, or am I misunderstanding something? I appreceate your usually helpful remarks!! For reference, please see: http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-as/snapshots/petsc-current/include/petsc.h.html#PetscTruth Or the notes written below. Using petsc 2.3.0; Best, Toby 339: /*MC 340: PETSC_TRUE - True value of PetscTruth 342: Level: beginner 344: Note: Nonzero integer 346: .seealso: PetscTruth, PETSC_FALSE 347: M*/ 349: /*MC 350: PETSC_YES - Alias for PETSC_TRUE 352: Level: beginner 354: Note: Zero integer 356: .seealso: PetscTruth, PETSC_TRUE, PETSC_FALSE, PETSC_NO 357: M*/ -- Toby D.
