<h1>H5R: Ragged Array Interface</h1>
</center>
<h2>Ragged Array API Functions</h2>
<table border=1>
<tr><th align=left>
<font color=red>
The H5R Interface is strictly experimental at this time;
the interface may change dramatically or support for ragged arrays
may be unavailable in future in releases. As a result, future releases
may be unable to retrieve data stored with this interface.
<p><center>Use these functions at your own risk!<br>
Do not create any archives using this interface!</center>
</font>
</th></tr>
</table>
<p>
These functions enable the user to store and retrieve data in ragged arrays.
