hdfio

All the useful python I/O utility functions for HDF5 files

Rationale

Writing this software package aggregator is motivated by the multitude of read/write functions currently existing in the python open source community. The package combines existing mature hdf(5) I/O source code and a few similar isolated functions into a single simple and user-friendly platform to save the labor of writing newer functions of similar capabilities. It's also the basis for building more sophisticate I/O operations.

Resources

The major resources gathered here include the following packages that covers generic I/O and interconversions between HDF and other popular key-value-pair file formats, such as dictionary (Python), json, mat (MATLAB).
