//  Description:
//              Example implementation of a node which read and write a 
//              multi of multi of float attibute in the compute() method. The
//              definition of this multi of multi of float attibute is 
//              the same as the weightList attribute for deformer. 
//        
//              To test the node, use the following MEL commands
/*
