PETSc for Partial Differential Equations is a new book on using PETSc to solve partial differential equations by modern numerical methods.

Order the paper book from SIAM Press or the e-book from Google Play.

This repository contains the C and Python example programs upon which the book is based. They will remain here for the long term, and be maintained for future versions of PETSc.

C examples

To compile and run the C examples, for Chapters 1 through 12, see the README.md in the c/ directory.

Python/Firedrake examples

Chapters 13 and 14 use Firedrake, a Python finite element library based on PETSc. See the README.md in the python/ directory to run these examples.
