    """N-dimensional array with labeled coordinates and dimensions.

    DataArray provides a wrapper around numpy ndarrays that uses labeled
    dimensions and coordinates to support metadata aware operations. The API is
    similar to that for the pandas Series or DataFrame, but DataArray objects
    can have any number of dimensions, and their contents have fixed data
    types.

    Additional features over raw numpy arrays:

    - Apply operations over dimensions by name: ``x.sum('time')``.
    - Select or assign values by integer location (like numpy): ``x[:10]``
      or by label (like pandas): ``x.loc['2014-01-01']`` or
      ``x.sel(time='2014-01-01')``.
    - Mathematical operations (e.g., ``x - y``) vectorize across multiple
      dimensions (known in numpy as "broadcasting") based on dimension names,
      regardless of their original order.
    - Keep track of arbitrary metadata in the form of a Python dictionary:
      ``x.attrs``
    - Convert to a pandas Series: ``x.to_series()``.

    Getting items from or doing mathematical operations with a DataArray
    always returns another DataArray.

    Attributes
    ----------
    dims : tuple
        Dimension names associated with this array.
    values : np.ndarray
        Access or modify DataArray values as a numpy array.
    coords : dict-like
        Dictionary of Coordinate objects that label values along each dimension.
    name : str or None
        Name of this array.

            or castable to an ``ndarray``. If a self-described xarray or pandas
            object, attempts are made to use this array's metadata to fill in
            other unspecified arguments. A view of the array's data is used
            instead of a copy if possible.
        coords : sequence or dict of array_like objects, optional
            Coordinates (tick labels) to use for indexing along each dimension.
            If dict-like, should be a mapping from dimension names to the
            corresponding coordinates.
        dims : str or sequence of str, optional
            Name(s) of the the data dimension(s). Must be either a string (only
            for 1D data) or a sequence of strings with length equal to the
            number of dimensions. If this argument is omitted, dimension names
            are taken from ``coords`` (if possible) and otherwise default to
            ``['dim_0', ... 'dim_n']``.
        name : str or None, optional
            Name of this array.
        attrs : dict_like or None, optional
            Attributes to assign to the new instance. By default, an empty
            attribute dictionary is initialized.
        encoding : dict_like or None, optional
            Dictionary specifying how to encode this array's data into a

            include '_FillValue', 'scale_factor', 'add_offset', 'dtype',
