""" This example shows how to set the fill value for a dataset. The program first sets the fill value to FILLVAL, creates a dataset with dimensions of DIM0xDIM1, reads from the uninitialized dataset, and outputs the contents to the screen. Next, it writes integers to the dataset, reads the data back, and outputs it to the screen. Finally it extends the dataset, reads from it, and outputs the result to the screen.
