Description:	NArray is an extension to help Tcl cope with large in-memory numeric arrays. NArray's require only a few more bytes than the storage required by the array. In addition to providing array referencing and setting, narray allows functions to be mapped over each element of the array. These functions are compiled into byte code for performance about 100x faster than straight tcl and only 5-10x slower than C. (These numbers are ball-park figures, actual results depend on the situation.) If you have netCDF, then narray's can be saved to and loaded from netCDF files.
