# PetscOptionsBoolGroup
One in a series of logical queries on the options database for which at most a single value can be true. Logically Collective on the communicator passed in `PetscOptionsBegin()`


## Synopsis
```
#include "petscsys.h"
PetscErrorCode PetscOptionsBoolGroup(const char opt[],const char text[],const char man[],PetscBool  *flg)
```

## Input Parameters

- ***opt -*** option name
- ***text -*** short string that describes the option
- ***man -*** manual page with additional information on option



## Output Parameter

- ***flg -*** `PETSC_TRUE` if found, else `PETSC_FALSE`





## Notes
Must be between a `PetscOptionsBegin()` and a `PetscOptionsEnd()`

Must follow a `PetscOptionsBoolGroupBegin()` and preceded a `PetscOptionsBoolGroupEnd()`
