[ncl-talk] cd_inv_calendar question

[Dennis Shea]

>From NCL 6.2.0 onward, you no longer need to load the libraries

[2]

No need for
   data = new((/3/),"string")

The following will automatically create the appropriate array.

data     = (/"090102 000130 ","090102 000132 ","090102 000133 "/)

[3]
tatts at longname   should be    tatts at long_name

[4]

 I think this is a printing issue, I think the calculations are correct.
