tutorial.py: code from introduction section of documentation.
json_att.py: shows to to use json to serialize python objects, save them as
netcdf attributes, and then convert them back to python objects.
subset.py: shows how to use 'orthogonal indexing' to select geographic regions.
reading_netcdf.ipynb: ipython notebook from Unidata python workshop.
writing_netcdf.ipynb: ipython notebook from Unidata python workshop.
threaded_read.py: test script for concurrent threaded reads.
bench.py: benchmarks for reading/writing using different formats.
`bench_compress*.py``: benchmarks for reading/writing with compression.
bench_diskless.py: benchmarks for 'diskless' IO.
test_stringarr.py: test utilities for converting arrays of fixed-length strings
to arrays of characters (with an extra dimension), and vice-versa.
