## @deftypefnx  {Function File} {} ncwrite (@var{filename}, @var{varname}, @var{x}, @var{start}, @var{stride})
##
## Write array @var{x} to the the variable @var{varname} in the NetCDF file 
## @var{filename}.
##
## The variable with the name @var{varname} and the appropriate dimension must 
## already exist in the NetCDF file.
##
## If @var{start} and @var{stride} are present, a subset of the 
## variable is written. The parameter @var{start} contains the starting indices 
## (1-based) and @var{stride} the 
## increment between two successive elements. These parameters are vectors whose
## length is equal to the number of dimension of the variable. 
##
## If the variable has the _FillValue attribute, then the values equal to NaN 
## are replaced by corresponding fill value NetCDF attributes scale_factor 
## (default 1) and add_oddset (default 0) are use the transform the variable 
## during writing:
##
## x_in_file = (x - add_offset)/scale_factor
##
## @subsubheading Example
## Create a netcdf file with a variable of 'mydata' and then write 
## data to that variable.
## @example
## nccreate('myfile.nc','mydata');
## ncwrite('myfile.nc','mydata', 101);
## @end example
