Parameters:

copy : bool, optional

If False then the returned dimension coordinate is not independent. By default the returned dimension coordinate is independent.

Returns:

out : cf.DimensionCoordinate

The coordinate recast as a dimension coordinate.

Examples:

>>> d = c.asdimension()
>>> d = c.asdimension(copy=False)
