NCDF_INQUIRE

The NCDF_INQUIRE function returns a structure that contains information about an open netCDF file. This structure of the form:

{ NDIMS:0L, NVARS:0L, NGATTS:0L, RECDIM:0L }

The structure tags are described below.

Result = NCDF_INQUIRE(Cdfid)

The returned structure contains the following tags:


Tag	Description
Ndims	The number of dimensions defined for this netCDF file.
Nvars	The number of variables defined for this netCDF file.
Ngatts	The number of global attributes defined for this netCDF file.
RecDim	The ID of the unlimited dimension, if there is one, for this netCDF file. If there is no unlimited dimension, RecDim is set to -1.

The netCDF ID, returned from a previous call to NCDF_OPEN or NCDF_CREATE.
