<H2>Description</h2>
You can select independent points to read from or write to in a
dataspace by use of the <CODE>H5Sselect_elements</CODE> /
<CODE>h5sselect_elements_f</CODE> function.
<P>
The <CODE>H5Scopy</CODE> / <CODE>h5scopy_f</CODE> function allows
you to make an exact copy of a dataspace.
This can reduce the number of function calls needed when
selecting a dataspace.
<P>
<H2> Programming Example</H2>
<A NAME="desc">
<H3><U>Description</U></H3>
This example shows how to use <CODE>H5Sselect_elements</CODE> /
<CODE>h5sselect_elements_f</CODE>
to select individual points in a dataset and how to use
<CODE>H5Scopy</CODE> / <CODE>h5scopy_f</CODE>
to make a copy of a dataspace.

<LI><CODE>H5Sselect_elements</CODE> / <CODE>h5sselect_elements_f</CODE>
selects array elements to be
included in the selection for a dataspace:
<P>
<I><B>C</B></I>:

size_t num_elements,

hdferr OUT: INTEGER
</pre>
<P>
<UL>
<LI>The <I>space_id</I> parameter is the dataspace identifier.
<P>
<LI>The <I>operator</I> parameter can be set to one of the following values:
<dir><DL>
<dt><CODE>H5S_SELECT_SET</CODE> (<CODE>H5S_SELECT_SET_F</CODE> in FORTRAN)
<dd>Replace the existing selection with the parameters from this call.
Overlapping blocks are not supported with this operator.
<dt><CODE>H5S_SELECT_OR</CODE> (<CODE>H5S_SELECT_OR_F</CODE> in FORTRAN)
<dd>Add the new selection to the existing selection.
</DL></dir>
<P>
<LI>The <I>coord</I> array is a two-dimensional array of size
<code><em>NUMP</em> x <em>RANK</em></code> in C
(<code><em>RANK</em> x <em>NUMP</em></code> in FORTRAN)
where <code><em>NUMP</em></code> is the number of selected points
and <code><em>RANK</em></code> is the rank of the dataset.
Note that these coordinates are 0-based in C and 1-based in FORTRAN.
<p>
Consider the non-zero elements of the following array:
<pre>
0 59 0 53
0 0 0 0
0 0 1 0 </pre>
In C, the <em>coord</em> array selecting these points would be as follows:
<pre>
0 1
0 3
2 2 </pre>
While in FORTRAN, the <em>coord</em> array would be as follows:
<pre>
1 1 3
2 4 3 </pre>
<P>
<LI>In C, this function returns a non-negative value if successful and
a negative value otherwise. In FORTRAN, the value returned in <I>hdferr</I>
indicates whether it was successful (0) or not (-1).

<LI>In C, the identifier to the dataspace's copy is returned if the
function is successful and a negative value is returned if not. In
FORTRAN, the new dataspace identifier is returned in <I>new_space_id</I>
and the return value is returned in <I>hdferr</I> ( 0 if successful and
-1 if not).
