/**
 * @class   vtkTableToSparseArray
 * @brief   converts a vtkTable into a sparse array.
 *
 *
 * Converts a vtkTable into a sparse array.  Use AddCoordinateColumn() to
 * designate one-to-many table columns that contain coordinates for each
 * array value, and SetValueColumn() to designate the table column that
 * contains array values.
 *
 * Thus, the number of dimensions in the output array will equal the number
 * of calls to AddCoordinateColumn().
 *
 * The coordinate columns will also be used to populate dimension labels
 * in the output array.
 *
 * By default, the extent of the output array will be set to the range
 * [0, largest coordinate + 1) along each dimension.  In some situations
 * you may prefer to set the extents explicitly, using the
 * SetOutputExtents() method.  This is useful when the output array should
 * be larger than its largest coordinates, or when working with partitioned
 * data.
 *
 * @par Thanks:
 * Developed by Timothy M. Shead (tshead@sandia.gov) at Sandia National Laboratories.
