Working with the MINC 2 library

Programmers may use the MINC 2 library to create new programs that manipulate MINC files. This library has been designed and written for use with the ``C'' programming language. It is not necessary to have an understanding of HDF5 or NetCDF in order to use the MINC 2 library.

It is beyond the scope of this document to provide a complete explanation of all of the library's functionality. For an exhaustive reference to the MINC 2 programming interface, please see the document MINC 2.0 Programmer's Reference Manual.
