# BVNormVec

Computes the norm of a given vector.

## Synopsis

    #include "slepcbv.h"
    PetscErrorCode BVNormVec(BV bv,Vec v,NormType type,PetscReal *val)

Collective

## Input Parameters

- bv - basis vectors

- v - the vector

- type - the norm type

## Output Parameter

- val - the norm

## Notes

This is the analogue of `BVNormColumn()` but for a vector that is not in the `BV`. If a non-standard inner product has been specified with `BVSetMatrix()`, then the returned value is \(\sqrt{v^*Bv}\), where \(B\) is the inner product matrix (argument `type` is ignored). Otherwise, `VecNorm()` is called.
