<A HREF="../Sys/PetscSequentialPhaseBegin.html#PetscSequentialPhaseBegin">PetscSequentialPhaseBegin</A>() and <A HREF="../Sys/PetscSequentialPhaseEnd.html#PetscSequentialPhaseEnd">PetscSequentialPhaseEnd</A>() provide a
way to force a section of code to be executed by the processes in
<A HREF="../Sys/rank.html#rank">rank</A> order.  Typically, this is done with
<PRE>
      <A HREF="../Sys/PetscSequentialPhaseBegin.html#PetscSequentialPhaseBegin">PetscSequentialPhaseBegin</A>(<A HREF="../Sys/comm.html#comm">comm</A>, 1);
      &lt;code to be executed sequentially&gt;
      <A HREF="../Sys/PetscSequentialPhaseEnd.html#PetscSequentialPhaseEnd">PetscSequentialPhaseEnd</A>(<A HREF="../Sys/comm.html#comm">comm</A>, 1);
</PRE>

<P>
Often, the sequential code contains output statements (e.g., printf) to
be executed.  Note that you may need to flush the I/O buffers before
calling <A HREF="../Sys/PetscSequentialPhaseEnd.html#PetscSequentialPhaseEnd">PetscSequentialPhaseEnd</A>().  Also, note that some systems do
not propagate I/O in any order to the controling terminal (in other words,
even if you flush the output, you may not get the data in the order
that you want).
