cf.Count


class cf.Count(properties=None, data=None, source=None, copy=True, _use_data=True)[source]

Bases: cf.mixin.propertiesdata.PropertiesData, cfdm.count.Count

A count variable required to uncompress a ragged array.

A collection of features stored using a contiguous ragged array combines all features along a single dimension (the sample dimension) such that each feature in the collection occupies a contiguous block.

The information needed to uncompress the data is stored in a count variable that gives the size of each block.

NetCDF interface

The netCDF variable name may be accessed with the nc_set_variable, nc_get_variable, nc_del_variable, and nc_has_variable methods.

The netCDF variable group structure may be accessed with the nc_set_variable, nc_get_variable, nc_variable_groups, nc_clear_variable_groups, and nc_set_variable_groups methods.

The name of the netCDF dimension spanned by the count variable’s data may be accessed with the nc_set_dimension, nc_get_dimension, nc_del_dimension and nc_has_dimension methods.

The name of the netCDF sample dimension spanned by the compressed data (that is stored in the “sample_dimension” netCDF attribute and which does not correspond to a domain axis construct) may be accessed with the nc_set_sample_dimension, nc_get_sample_dimension, nc_del_sample_dimension and nc_has_sample_dimension methods.

New in version (cfdm): 1.7.0

Initialisation

Parameters
properties: dict, optional

Set descriptive properties. The dictionary keys are property names, with corresponding values.

Properties may also be set after initialisation with the set_properties and set_property methods.

Parameter example:

properties={'long_name': 'number of obs'}

data: data_like, optional

Set the data.

A data_like object is any object that can be converted to a Data object, i.e. numpy array_like objects, Data objects, and cf instances that contain Data objects.

The data also may be set after initialisation with the set_data method.

A data_like object is any object that can be converted to a Data object, i.e. numpy array_like objects, Data objects, and cf instances that contain Data objects.

source: optional

Convert source, which can be any type of object, to a Count instance.

All other parameters, apart from copy, are ignored and their values are instead inferred from source by assuming that it has the Count API. Any parameters that can not be retrieved from source in this way are assumed to have their default value.

Note that if x is also a Count instance then cf.Count(source=x) is equivalent to x.copy().

copy: bool, optional

If True (the default) then deep copy the input parameters prior to initialisation. By default the parameters are not deep copied.
