# MatPreallocateSet

Indicates the locations (rows and columns) in the matrix where nonzeros will be inserted using a local number of the rows and columns

### Synopsis

    #include "petscmat.h"
    PetscErrorCode MatPreallocateSet(PetscInt nrows, PetscInt *rows,PetscInt ncols, PetscInt *cols,PetscInt *dnz, PetscInt *onz)

Not Collective

### Input Parameters

| row | - the row
| ncols | - the number of columns in the matrix
| cols | - the columns indicated

### Output Parameters

| dnz | - the array that will be passed to the matrix preallocation routines
| ozn | - the other array passed to the matrix preallocation routines

### Notes

See the <A href="../../docs/manual.pdf#nameddest=Chapter 11 Hints for Performance Tuning">Hints for Performance Improvment</A> chapter in the users manual for more details.

Do not malloc or free dnz and onz that is handled internally by these routines

This is a MACRO not a function because it uses variables declared in MatPreallocateInitialize().
