NAME

       h5totxt - generate comma-delimited text from 2d slices of HDF5 files

SYNOPSIS

       h5totxt [OPTION]... [HDF5FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       h5totxt is a utility to generate comma-delimited text (and similar formats) from one-, two-, or more-dimensional slices of numeric datasets
       in HDF5 files.  This way, the data can easily be imported into spreadsheets and similar programs for analysis and visualization.

       HDF5 is a free, portable binary format and supporting library developed by the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the  Uni-
       versity of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign.  A single h5 file can contain multiple data sets; by default, h5totxt takes the first dataset, but
       this can be changed via the -d option, or by using the syntax HDF5FILE:DATASET.

       By default, the entire dataset is dumped to the output.	in row-major order.  For 3d datasets, this corresponds to a sequence of yz slices,
       in order of increasing x, separated by blank lines.  If -T is specified, outputs in the transposed (column-major) order instead

       Often,  however,  you  want  only a one- or two-dimensional slice of multi-dimensional data.  To do this, you specify coordinates in one or
       more slice dimensions, via the -xyzt options.

       The most basic usage is something like 'h5totxt foo.h5', which will output comma-delimited text to stdout from the data in foo.h5.

OPTIONS

       -h     Display help on the command-line options and usage.

       -V     Print the version number and copyright info for h5totxt.

       -v     Verbose output.

       -o file
	      Send text output to file rather than to stdout (the default).

       -s sep Use the string sep to separate columns of the output rather than a comma (the default).

       -x ix, -y iy, -z iz, -t it
	      This tells h5totxt to use a particular slice of a multi-dimensional dataset.  e.g.  -x causes a yz plane (of a  3d  dataset)  to	be
	      used,  at an x index of ix (where the indices run from zero to one less than the maximum index in that direction).  Here, x/y/z cor-
	      respond to the first/second/third dimensions of the HDF5 dataset. The -t option specifies a slice in the last  dimension,  whichever
	      that might be.  See also the -0 option to shift the origin of the x/y/z slice coordinates to the dataset center.

       -0     Shift  the  origin  of  the x/y/z slice coordinates to the dataset center, so that e.g. -0 -x 0 (or more compactly -0x0) returns the
	      central x plane of the dataset instead of the edge x plane.  (-t coordinates are not affected.)

       -T     Transpose the data (interchange the dimension ordering).	By default, no transposition is done.

       -. numdigits
	      Output numdigits digits after the decimal point (defaults to 16).

       -d name
	      Use dataset name from the input files; otherwise, the first  dataset  from  each	file  is  used.   Alternatively,  use  the  syntax
	      HDF5FILE:DATASET,  which allows you to specify a different dataset for each file.  You can use the h5ls command (included with hdf5)
	      to find the names of datasets within a file.

NAME

       Class::MakeMethods::Utility::Inheritable - "Inheritable" data

SYNOPSIS

	 package MyClass;
	 sub new { ... }

	 package MySubclass;
	 @ISA = 'MyClass';
	 ...
	 my $obj = MyClass->new(...);
	 my $subobj = MySubclass->new(...);

	 use Class::MakeMethods::Utility::Inheritable qw(get_vvalue set_vvalue );

	 my $dataset = {};
	 set_vvalue($dataset, 'MyClass', 'Foobar');    # Set value for class
	 get_vvalue($dataset, 'MyClass');	       # Gets value "Foobar"

	 get_vvalue($dataset, $obj);		       # Objects "inherit"
	 set_vvalue($dataset, $obj, 'Foible');	       # Until you override
	 get_vvalue($dataset, $obj);		       # Now finds "Foible"

	 get_vvalue($dataset, 'MySubclass');	       # Subclass "inherits"
	 get_vvalue($dataset, $subobj); 	       # As do its objects
	 set_vvalue($dataset, 'MySubclass', 'Foozle'); # Until we override it
	 get_vvalue($dataset, 'MySubclass');	       # Now finds "Foozle"

	 get_vvalue($dataset, $subobj); 	       # Change cascades down
	 set_vvalue($dataset, $subobj, 'Foolish');     # Until we override again

	 get_vvalue($dataset, 'MyClass');	       # Superclass is unchanged

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides several functions which allow you to store values in a hash corresponding to both objects and classes, and to retrieve
       those values by searching a object's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry.

       This functionality is used by Class::MakeMethods::Standard::Inheritable and Class::MakeMethods::Composite::Inheritable to construct methods
       that can both store class data and be overriden on a per-object level.

REFERENCE

   find_vself
	 $vself = find_vself( $dataset, $instance );

       Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry in the dataset, and returns either the instance, the class that
       matched, or undef.

   get_vvalue
	 $value = get_vvalue( $dataset, $instance );

       Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry in the dataset, and returns that value

   set_vvalue
	 $value = set_vvalue( $dataset, $instance, $value );

       Searches $instance's inheritance tree until it finds a matching entry in the dataset, and returns that value
