   This is an example program which writes some 4D pressure and
   temperatures. It is intended to illustrate the use of the netCDF
   C API. The companion program pres_temp_4D_rd.c shows how
   to read the netCDF data file created by this program.
   
   This program is part of the netCDF tutorial:
