Creating a dataset and writing an array into an hdf5 file using h5Py

h5PyBasic.py

import numpy as np
import h5py as hp

filename='h5py1.h5'

#open a file
f=hp.File(filename,driver='sec2',mode='w')

#create a dataset
mydset=f.create_dataset("mydset",(10,10),'=f8',maxshape=(None,None))
#write an array into the dataset
mydset=np.array(np.arange(5*3)).reshape((5,3))

#print the array in the dataset
print mydset[:,:]
f.close()
