# PCMGSetInterpolation
Sets the function to be used to calculate the interpolation from l-1 to the lth level 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCMGSetInterpolation(PC pc, PetscInt l, Mat mat)
```
Logically Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***pc  -*** the multigrid context
- ***mat -*** the interpolation operator
- ***l   -*** the level (0 is coarsest) to supply [do not supply 0]





## Notes
Usually this is the same matrix used also to set the restriction
for the same level.

One can pass in the interpolation matrix or its transpose; PETSc figures
out from the matrix size which one it is.


## See Also
 `PCMG`, `PCMGSetRestriction()`

## Level
