// In the same way that custom data can be associated with points in the mesh,
// it is also possible to associate custom data with cells. The type of the
// data associated with the cells can be different from the data type
// associated with points. By default, however, these two types are the same.
// The following example illustrates how to access data associated with cells.
// The approach is analogous to the one used to access point data.
