/************************************************************

  This example shows how to read and write integer datatypes
  to a dataset.  The program first writes integers to a
  dataset with a dataspace of DIM0xDIM1, then closes the
  file.  Next, it reopens the file, reads back the data, and
  outputs it to the screen.
