fbindirSwap

Reads byte-reversed data and writes output file that can be read by fbindirread or cbinread (deprecated).

Prototype

load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/contributed.ncl"  ; This library is automatically loaded
                                                             ; from NCL V6.2.0 onward.
                                                             ; No need for user to explicitly load.

	procedure fbindirSwap (
		in_file  [1] : string,   
		dims     [*] : integer,  
		type     [1] : string,   
		out_file [1] : string    
	)

Arguments

Name of input file.

A one-dimensional array or equal to the dimensionality of the input data.

The type of the data in in_file (e.g. "float")

Name of output file.

Description

Note: this function is deprecated. You can now use the "ReadByteOrder" and "WriteByteOrder" options in setfileoption to indicate how the various NCL binary read/write functions should read and write files.

This procedure reads byte-reversed data and writes output file that can be read by fbindirread or cbinread.
