/* 
 *  This program shows how the select_hyperslab and select_elements
 *  functions are used to write selected data from memory to the file.
 *  Program takes 48 elements from the linear buffer and writes them into
 *  the matrix using 3x2 blocks, (4,3) stride and (2,4) count. 
 *  Then four elements  of the matrix are overwritten with the new values and 
 *  file is closed. Program reopens the file and reads and displays the result.
