            array: data_like, optional
                The array of values.

                {{data_like}}

                Ignored if the *source* parameter is set.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``array=[34.6]``

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``array=[[1, 2], [3, 4]]``

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``array=numpy.ma.arange(10).reshape(2, 1, 5)``

            units: `str`, optional
                The physical units of the data. Ignored if the *source*
                parameter is set.

                The units may also be set after initialisation with the
                `set_units` method.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``units='km hr-1'``

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``units='days since 2018-12-01'``

            calendar: `str`, optional
                The calendar for reference time units. Ignored if the
                *source* parameter is set.

                The calendar may also be set after initialisation with the
                `set_calendar` method.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``calendar='360_day'``

            fill_value: optional
                The fill value of the data. By default, or if set to
                `None`, the `numpy` fill value appropriate to the array's
                data type will be used (see
                `numpy.ma.default_fill_value`). Ignored if the *source*
                parameter is set.

                The fill value may also be set after initialisation with
                the `set_fill_value` method.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``fill_value=-999.``

            dtype: data-type, optional
                The desired data-type for the data. By default the
                data-type will be inferred form the *array* parameter.

                The data-type may also be set after initialisation
                with the `dtype` attribute.

                *Parameter example:*
                    ``dtype=float``

                *Parameter example:*
                    ``dtype='float32'``

                *Parameter example:*
                    ``dtype=numpy.dtype('i2')``

            mask: data_like, optional
                Apply this mask to the data given by the *array*
                parameter. By default, or if *mask* is `None`, no mask
                is applied. May be any data_like object that
                broadcasts to *array*. Masking will be carried out
                where mask elements evaluate to `True`.

                This mask will applied in addition to any mask already
                defined by the *array* parameter.

            source: optional
                Initialise the array, units, calendar and fill value
                from those of *source*.

                Ignored if the *source* parameter is set.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``array=[34.6]``

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``array=[[1, 2], [3, 4]]``

                parameter is set.

                The units may also be set after initialisation with the
                `set_units` method.

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``units='km hr-1'``

                *Parameter example:*
                  ``units='days since 2018-12-01'``

            calendar: `str`, optional
                The calendar for reference time units. Ignored if the
                *source* parameter is set.

                The calendar may also be set after initialisation with the
                `set_calendar` method.

                  ``calendar='360_day'``

            fill_value: optional
                The fill value of the data. By default, or if set to
                `None`, the `numpy` fill value appropriate to the array's
                data type will be used (see

                The fill value may also be set after initialisation with

                The desired data-type for the data. By default the
                data-type will be inferred form the *array* parameter.

                The data-type may also be set after initialisation
                with the `dtype` attribute.

                *Parameter example:*
                    ``dtype=float``

                *Parameter example:*
                    ``dtype='float32'``

                    ``dtype=numpy.dtype('i2')``

            mask: data_like, optional
                Apply this mask to the data given by the *array*
                parameter. By default, or if *mask* is `None`, no mask
                is applied. May be any data_like object that
                broadcasts to *array*. Masking will be carried out
