文件的结构与性能

2.1 经典格式的部分

A netCDF classic dataset (including CDF-1, 2, and 5 formats) is stored as a single file comprising two parts:

• a header, containing all the information about dimensions, attributes, and variables except for the variable data;
• a data part, comprising fixed-size data, containing the data for variables that don’t have an unlimited dimension; and variable-size data, containing the data for variables that have an unlimited dimension.
