The netCDF-3 C and Fortran APIs each have over 100 functions, but most users need only a handful. Listed below are the essential netCDF functions for four important tasks in netCDF: creating new files, reading existing files, learning about a netCDF file of unknown structure, and reading and writing subsets of data.
In each case the functions are presented for each of the four language APIs: C, Fortran 77, Fortran 90, and C++, with hyper-links to the detailed documentation of each function.
