Description

To use these MATLAB^® functions, you should be familiar with the HDF SD C API. In most cases, the syntax of the MATLAB function is similar to the syntax of the corresponding HDF library function. The functions are implemented as the package matlab.io.hdf4.sd. To use this package, prefix the function name with a package path, or use the import function to add the package to the current import list, prior to calling the function, for example,

import matlab.io.hdf4.*
sdID = sd.start('myfile.hdf','read');
