<P>
The C++ binding for array provides access to the C API in case you<A NAME="2660"></A>
need to take the gloves off and revel in the data directly. But the
C++ binding also provides a templated wrapper class to provide a more
natural look and feel for C++ programmers.
<P>
The Python binding for arrays involves copying SIDL arrays to/from
Numeric Python arrays. Arrays in
Python<A NAME="2661"></A><A NAME="2662"></A> don't have the SIDL methods
available. They just have the Numeric Python API available.
<P>
The FORTRAN 77 API mimics the C API; all the C functions have been
FORTRANified and have _f appended to their names. The
FORTRAN 90 API uses function overloading to allow programmers to use
the short array method names.
