Miscellaneous Input/Output (astropy.io.misc
)¶
The astropy.io.misc
module contains miscellaneous input/output routines that
do not fit elsewhere, and are often used by other Astropy sub-packages. For
example, astropy.io.misc.hdf5
contains functions to read/write
Table
objects from/to HDF5 files, but these
should not be imported directly by users. Instead, users can access this
functionality via the Table
class itself (see
Unified file read/write interface). Routines that are intended to be used directly by users are
listed in the astropy.io.misc
section.

astropy.io.misc.hdf5 Module¶
This package contains functions for reading and writing HDF5 tables that are
