int VecDuplicate(Vec x,Vec *newv)

v -a vector to mimic

Output Parameter

newv -location to put new vector

VecDuplicate() does not copy the vector, but rather allocates storage for the new vector. Use VecCopy() to copy a vector.

Use VecDestroy() to free the space. Use VecDuplicateVecs() to get several vectors.
