Examples and Tests:

SIMPLE_XY_WR writes two dimensional data to a NETCDF file. SIMPLE_XY_RD reads data from that file.

• simple_xy_wr.c, the writing program;
• simple_xy_wr.txt, the output file.
• simple_xy.nc, the NETCDF file created by the program.
• simple_xy.cdl, the CDL text file version of the NETCDF file.
• simple_xy_rd.c, the reading program;
• simple_xy_rd.txt, the output file.

SFC_PRES_TEMP_WR writes data to a NETCDF file. The data will include units attributes and coordinate dimensions. SFC_PRES_TEMP_RD reads data from the file.

• sfc_pres_temp_wr.c, the writing program;
• sfc_pres_temp_wr.txt, the output file.
• sfc_pres_temp.nc, the NETCDF file created by the program.
• sfc_pres_temp.cdl, the CDL text file version of the NETCDF file.
• sfc_pres_temp_rd.c, the reading program;
• sfc_pres_temp_rd.txt, the output file.

PRES_TEMP_4D_WR writes data to a NETCDF file. The data will be four-dimensional and use a record dimension. PRES_TEMP_4D_RD reads data from the file.

• pres_temp_4D_wr.c, the program;
• pres_temp_4D_wr.txt, the output file.
• pres_temp_4D.nc, the NETCDF file created by the program.
• pres_temp_4D.cdl, the CDL text file version of the NETCDF file.
• pres_temp_4D_rd.c, the program;
• pres_temp_4D_rd.txt, the output file.
