cdflib.getNumAttributes - Number of attributes with variable scope

Syntax

Description

numAtts = cdflib.getNumAttributes(cdfId) returns the total number of attributes with variable scope in a Common Data Format (CDF) file. cdfId identifies the CDF file.

Examples

Open the example CDF and find out how many attributes in the file have variable scope:

cdfid = cdflib.open('example.cdf');

% Determine the number of attributes with variable scope
numAttrs = cdflib.getNumAttributes(cdfid)

numAttrs =

    1

% Clean up
cdflib.close(cdfid);

clear cdfid
