# MatMFFD
A data structured used to manage the computation of the h differencing parameter for matrix-free Jacobian vector products 
## Synopsis
```
typedef struct _p_MatMFFD *MatMFFD;
```

## Notes
`MATMFFD` is a specific `MatType` which uses the `MatMFFD` data structure

MatMFFD*() methods actually take the Mat as their first argument. Not a `MatMFFD` data structure
