[ncarg-talk] Easy File Input Output

Good day all,

Just downloaded an archived GFS data file from NOMADS.

gfs_3_20160814_0000_003.grb



Now I convert it to a NetCDF file by the following command:

~/nclDnS/datasets$ ncl_convert2nc gfs_3_20160814_0000_003.grb

It does its thing and works, good now I want to practice with it. Therefore
I use a script from the FAQ question section:

begin
  grib_file  = addfile("gfs_3_20160814_0000_003.grb","r")  ; Open GRIB file
to read
  ncfile_out = addfile("data.nc","c")             ; Open NetCDF file to
write

; Write some data to NetCDF file.
  ncfile_out->HGT   = grib_file->HGT_6_SFC
  ncfile_out->A_PCP = grib_file->A_PCP_6_SFC_acc
  ncfile_out->NCPCP = grib_file->NCPCP_6_SFC_acc
  ncfile_out->ACPCP = grib_file->ACPCP_6_SFC_acc
  ncfile_out->CAPE  = grib_file->CAPE_6_SFC
end
