################################################################################
# A test program to write a large NetCDF file and see if we can read it.
#
# The file is written with a defined number of variables, each of a required
# size.  Each variable consists of one or more 'slices', each 1000*1000 cells.
# Each element of each slice of each variable is written with a *unique* value
# that is checked when the file is read.
#
# So, for variable V (numbering from 0), slice S (starting from 0), element
# E will range from 0 to 10**6-1, and the element value will be:
#     S*100 + V + E*1.0E-6
# which will look like:
#     SSSSVV.EEEEEE
# This implies that the maximum number of variables written is 100 (0 to 99).
