Hi,
I'am very new to HDF5 and I do not have much experience in programming. So, is it possible to include HDF5 in Python programs? How does it works?
Thx
Christian

I don't know what you exactly mean by 'including' HDF5 in Python, but I
suppose that you meant using the HDF5 library from Python. In that
case, yeah, there are (at least) a couple of options:
- h5py (h5py.alfven.org): Meant to provide a complete wrapper to HDF5.
It uses a low level approach, and despite the fact that it is a pretty
young library (i.e. you should expect bugs), it looks great.
- PyTables (www.pytables.org): It provides a high-level, easy-to-use
interface to the HDF5 library with an emphasis in performance. It is a
mature (reached production quality around 5 years ago) and well-tested
library.
My advise is that you visit their web sites and choose the one that fits
better to your needs.
Hope that helps,
