Description:
The Common Data Format (CDF) is a self-describing data format for the storage
and manipulation of scalar and multidimensional data in a platform- and
discipline-independent fashion. When one first hears the term "Common Data
Format" one intuitively thinks of data formats in the traditional (i.e.
messy/convoluted storage of data on disk or tape) sense of the word. Although
CDF has its own internal self describing format, it consists of more than just
a data format. CDF is a scientific data management package (known as the "CDF
Library") which allows programmers and application developers to manage and
manipulate scalar, vector, and multi-dimensional data arrays. The irony of the
term "FORMAT" is that the actual data format which CDF utilizes is completely
transparent to the user and accessible through a consistent set of interface
(known as the "CDF Interface") routines. Therefore, programmers are not 
burdened with performing low level I/O's to physically format and unformat the
data file. This is all done for them automatically.
