A dataset is +essentially a multidimensional array of data elements, and a group is +a structure for organizing objects in an HDF file. Using these two basic +objects, one can create and store almost any kind of scientific data +structure, such as images, arrays of vectors, and structured and +unstructured grids. You can also mix and match them in HDF files +according to your needs. + -- cgit v1.2.3-65-gdbad
