Variable name, given variable number
name = cdflib.getVarName(cdfId,varNum)
name = cdflib.getVarName(cdfId,varNum)
returns the name of the variable in a Common Data Format (CDF) file.
cdfId identifies the CDF file. varNum is
a numeric value that identifies the variable. Variable numbers are
zero-based. name is a character vector specifying
the name.
Open the example CDF, and then get the name of a variable in the file:
cdfid = cdflib.open('example.cdf');
name = cdflib.getVarName(cdfid,1)
name =
Longitude
