// .NAME vtkArrayCoordinates - Stores coordinate into an N-way array.
//
// .SECTION Description
// vtkArrayCoordinates stores a collection of coordinates that can be
// used to access values in a vtkArray containing an arbitrary number of
// dimensions.
//
// Convenience constructors are provided for working with one, two, and
// three dimensions.  For higher dimensions, use the default constructor,
// SetDimensions() and operator[] to assign a coordinate value along each
// dimension.
//
// .SECTION See Also
// vtkArray, vtkArrayExtents
//
// .SECTION Thanks
// Developed by Timothy M. Shead (tshead@sandia.gov) at Sandia National
// Laboratories.
