NetCDF reader/writer module.

This module is used to read and create NetCDF files. NetCDF files are
accessed through the `netcdf_file` object. Data written to and from NetCDF
files are contained in `netcdf_variable` objects. Attributes are given
as member variables of the `netcdf_file` and `netcdf_variable` objects.

Notes
-----
NetCDF files are a self-describing binary data format. The file contains
metadata that describes the dimensions and variables in the file. More
details about NetCDF files can be found `here
<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf.html>`_. There
are three main sections to a NetCDF data structure:

1. Dimensions
2. Variables
3. Attributes

The dimensions section records the name and length of each dimension used
by the variables. The variables would then indicate which dimensions it
uses and any attributes such as data units, along with containing the data
values for the variable. It is good practice to include a
variable that is the same name as a dimension to provide the values for
that axes. Lastly, the attributes section would contain additional
information such as the name of the file creator or the instrument used to
collect the data.

When writing data to a NetCDF file, there is often the need to indicate the
'record dimension'. A record dimension is the unbounded dimension for a
variable. For example, a temperature variable may have dimensions of
latitude, longitude and time. If one wants to add more temperature data to
the NetCDF file as time progresses, then the temperature variable should
have the time dimension flagged as the record dimension.

This module implements the Scientific.IO.NetCDF API to read and create
NetCDF files. The same API is also used in the PyNIO and pynetcdf
modules, allowing these modules to be used interchangeably when working
with NetCDF files. The major advantage of this module over other
modules is that it doesn't require the code to be linked to the NetCDF
libraries.

In addition, the NetCDF file header contains the position of the data in
the file, so access can be done in an efficient manner without loading
unnecessary data into memory. It uses the ``mmap`` module to create
Numpy arrays mapped to the data on disk, for the same purpose.

Examples
--------

To create a NetCDF file:

    >>> f = netcdf_file('simple.nc', 'w')
    >>> f.history = 'Created for a test'
    >>> f.location = u'北京'
    >>> f.createDimension('time', 10)
    >>> time = f.createVariable('time', 'i', ('time',))
    >>> time[:] = range(10)
    >>> time.units = u'µs since 2008-01-01'
    >>> f.close()

Note the assignment of ``range(10)`` to ``time[:]``.  Exposing the slice
of the time variable allows for the data to be set in the object, rather
than letting ``range(10)`` overwrite the ``time`` variable.

To read the NetCDF file we just created:

    >>> f = netcdf_file('simple.nc', 'r')
    >>> print(f.history)
    Created for a test
    >>> print(f.location)
    北京
    >>> time = f.variables['time']
    >>> print(time.units)
    µs since 2008-01-01
    >>> print(time.shape)
    (10,)
    >>> print(time[-1])
    9
    >>> f.close()

TODO:
 * properly implement ``_FillValue``.
 * implement Jeff Whitaker's patch for masked variables.
 * fix character variables.
 * implement PAGESIZE for Python 2.6?

    """
    A file object for NetCDF data.

    A `netcdf_file` object has two standard attributes: `dimensions` and
    `variables`. The values of both are dictionaries, mapping dimension
    names to their associated lengths and variable names to variables,
    respectively. Application programs should never modify these
    dictionaries.

    All other attributes correspond to global attributes defined in the
    NetCDF file. Global file attributes are created by assigning to an
    attribute of the `netcdf_file` object.

    If delay is True, variable data is only read/written on demand.
    In this case, if mode="w", write_metadata() needs to be called after
    all dimensions, variables and attributes have been defined, but before
    any variable data is written.

    Parameters
    ----------
    filename : string or file-like
        string -> filename
    mode : {'r', 'w'}, optional
        read-write mode, default is 'r'
    mmap : None or bool, optional
        Whether to mmap `filename` when reading.  Default is True
        when `filename` is a file name, False when `filename` is a
        file-like object
    delay : bool, optional
        Whether to delay reading of variable data.  Default is False.
        This is an alternative to mmap for more efficient reading.
    version : {1, 2}, optional
        version of netcdf to read / write, where 1 means *Classic
        format* and 2 means *64-bit offset format*.  Default is 1.  See

class netcdf_variable(object):
    """
    A data object for the `netcdf` module.

    `netcdf_variable` objects are constructed by calling the method
    `netcdf_file.createVariable` on the `netcdf_file` object. `netcdf_variable`
    objects behave much like array objects defined in numpy, except that their
    data resides in a file. Data is read by indexing and written by assigning
    to an indexed subset; the entire array can be accessed by the index ``[:]``
    or (for scalars) by using the methods `getValue` and `assignValue`.
    `netcdf_variable` objects also have attribute `shape` with the same meaning
    as for arrays, but the shape cannot be modified. There is another read-only
    attribute `dimensions`, whose value is the tuple of dimension names.

    All other attributes correspond to variable attributes defined in
    the NetCDF file. Variable attributes are created by assigning to an
    attribute of the `netcdf_variable` object.

    Parameters
    ----------
    data : array_like
        The data array that holds the values for the variable.
        Typically, this is initialized as empty, but with the proper shape.
    type: numpy dtype
        Desired data-type for the data array.
    shape : sequence of ints
        The shape of the array.  This should match the lengths of the
        variable's dimensions.
    dimensions : sequence of strings
        The names of the dimensions used by the variable.  Must be in the
        same order of the dimension lengths given by `shape`.
    attributes : dict, optional
        Attribute values (any type) keyed by string names.  These attributes
        become attributes for the netcdf_variable object.


    Attributes
    ----------
    dimensions : list of str
        List of names of dimensions used by the variable object.
