[SciPy-User] Can create, but not access, netCDF variables with no dimension

[Mannucci, Anthony J (335G)]

Thanks for your help using getValue. That should help with the example I provided. However, the variable does not show up in the keys(). Here is an ncdump excerpt.

More information: I'm using scipy 0.10. Perhaps this issue has been resolved in a later version?
