# MatPermute
Creates a new matrix with rows and columns permuted from the original. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscmat.h" 
PetscErrorCode MatPermute(Mat mat, IS row, IS col, Mat *B)
```
Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***mat -*** the matrix to permute
- ***row -*** row permutation, each processor supplies only the permutation for its rows
- ***col -*** column permutation, each processor supplies only the permutation for its columns



## Output Parameters

- ***B -*** the permuted matrix





## Note
The index sets map from row/col of permuted matrix to row/col of original matrix.
The index sets should be on the same communicator as mat and have the same local sizes.


## Developer Note
If you want to implement `MatPermute()` for a matrix type, and your approach doesn't
exploit the fact that row and col are permutations, consider implementing the
more general `MatCreateSubMatrix()` instead.
