# KSPComputeOperator

Computes the explicit preconditioned operator, including diagonal scaling and null space removal if applicable.

### Synopsis

    #include "petscksp.h"
    PetscErrorCode  KSPComputeOperator(KSP ksp, MatType mattype, Mat *mat)

Collective on ksp

### Input Parameter

| ksp | - the Krylov subspace context
| mattype | - the matrix type to be used

### Output Parameter

mat -the explict preconditioned operator

### Notes

This computation is done by applying the operators to columns of the identity matrix.

Currently, this routine uses a dense matrix format for the output operator if mattype == NULL. This routine is costly in general, and is recommended for use only with relatively small systems.
