Data.varray

A numpy array view the data array.

Note that making changes to elements of the returned view changes the underlying data.

If the data array is stored as date-time objects then a numpy array view of numeric reference times will be returned. In this case, a numpy array view of date-time objects may be created with the dtvarray attribute.
