# spacepy.pycdf.zAttr

class `spacepy.pycdf.``zAttr`(cdf_file, attr_name, create=False)

  zAttribute for zVariables within a CDF.

  Warning

  Because zAttributes are shared across all variables in a CDF, directly manipulating them may have unexpected consequences. It is safest to operate on zEntries via `zAttrList`.

  Note

  When accessing a zAttr, pyCDF exposes only the zEntry corresponding to the associated zVariable.
