Re: [netcdf-java] Reading "linearly" through a multi-dimensional array

Perhaps you could use one of the built-in iterators, such as
Array.getRangeIterator
<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/netcdf-java/javadoc/ucar/ma2/Array.html#getRangeIterator-java.util.List->
(java.util.List<Range
<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/thredds/current/netcdf-java/javadoc/ucar/ma2/Range.html>
> ranges)
