The following code gives r = 0.0. It is not supposed to be.

The problem seems to be that f's vector is still all zeros at the call
to interpolate. Could this be easily fixed?
This example should have led to an error message since f is not a
discrete function. I'll take a look.

Why should f be discrete?

It is "discrete" in that it has a finite element type, but it is not "discrete" in the the sense that it has a vector of dofs.

f is interpolated into Q_h. Pi_f is the one that has
to be discrete. Isn't f's eval used in the interpolation when it is not discrete?

... or have I got lost in the interpolation jungle?

from dolfin import *

mesh = UnitSquare(1,1)
V_h = FunctionSpace(mesh, "CG", 1)
f = Function(V_h, "1.0")

Q_h = FunctionSpace(mesh, "DG", 1)
Pi_f = interpolate(f, Q_h)

r = norm(Pi_f)
print "r = ", r
