A Regular Grid #!N #!EC #!N #!N The following example illustrates 
the basic Objects of the data model, and shows how to 
imbed data as text in the header section. The Objects and 
data describe a regular grid. This file is found in  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
/usr/lpp/dx/samples/data/regular.dx #!EF .  #!Lregreg105,dxall626 f Figure 105  #!EL  shows the resulting structure. The axes diagram 
in the lower right corner of the figure indicates the orientation 
of the axes. This orientation applies to all subsequent examples as 
well. #!N #!N Note that the positions are considered to increment 
in the order "last index varies fastest" when matching data to 
positions. For example, for this simple 4 x 2 x 3 
grid, the order of the positions is  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[0]y[0]z[0]] #!EF , 
 #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[0]y[0]z[1]] #!EF ,  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[0]y[0]z[2]] #!EF ,  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[0]y[1]z[0]] #!EF 
, and so on. This is because the deltas are specified 
in the order  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   .x, y, z #!EF , so  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   
z #!EF is the last index. If the data was stored 
in the order  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[0]y[0]z[0]] #!EF ,  #!F-adobe-times-medium-i-normal--18*   [x[1]y[0]z[0]] ... #!EF 
, then the order of the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   delta #!EF clauses would 
be reversed, and the counts would be specified as 3 2 
4. #!N #!N When using the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   gridconnections #!EF keyword, it 
is not necessary to specify the "element type" or "ref" attribute, 
as these will automatically be set for you. #!CForestGreen #!N #!N
