PETSc for Partial Differential Equations is a new book on using PETSc to solve partial differential equations by modern numerical methods. It can be ordered from SIAM Press:
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.
C examples
To compile and run the C examples, for Chapters 1 through 12, see README.md in the c/ directory.
Python/Firedrake examples
Chapters 13 and 14 use Firedrake, a Python finite element library based on PETSc, and petsc4py in particular. See README.md in the python/ directory to run these examples.
