With this method you can create an axis to use with new CFArray instances.
Depending on the orientation argument and the type of the values argument
an instance of a class descending from CFAxis will be returned.
makeAxis(name, group, orientation, values, bounds = NULL)An instance of a class descending from CFAxis.
Name of the axis.
Group to place the axis in.
The orientation of the axis. Must be one of "X", "Y", "Z", or "T" for longitude, latitude, height or depth, and time axes, respectively. For any other axis, indicate an empty string ""
The coordinate values. In the case of an axis with
orientation = "T" this must be a CFTime instance.
The bounds of the coordinate values, or NULL if not
available.
There are several restrictions on the combination of orientation and
values arguments. Longitude and latitude axes (orientation of "X" or "Y")
must have numeric values. For a time axis (orientation of "T") the
values argument must be an instance of CFTime or CFClimatology.
