# MatGetOwnershipRange

Returns the range of matrix rows owned by this processor, assuming that the matrix is laid out with the first n1 rows on the first processor, the next n2 rows on the second, etc. For certain parallel layouts this range may not be well defined.

### Synopsis

    #include "petscmat.h"
    PetscErrorCode MatGetOwnershipRange(Mat mat,PetscInt *m,PetscInt *n)

Not Collective

### Input Parameters

mat -the matrix

### Output Parameters

| m | - the global index of the first local row
| n | - one more than the global index of the last local row

Note: Both output parameters can be NULL on input.

     This function requires that the matrix be preallocated. If you have not preallocated, consider using

       PetscSplitOwnership(MPI_Comm comm, PetscInt *n, PetscInt *N)

     and then MPI_Scan() to calculate prefix sums of the local sizes.
