How does one create a NetCDF file?

Hi there!
I am desperately trying to create a NetCDF file that would include latitude, longitude and depth, to use as a bathymetry file in Ocean Data View. Here is the script that I came up with:
my_data = [lat lon depth]';
ncid = netcdf.create('sagbathy','NOCLOBBER');
dimid = netcdf.defDim(ncid,'my_dim',size(my_data));
varid = netcdf.defVar(ncid,'my_var','NC_BYTE',dimid);
netcdf.endDef(ncid);
netcdf.putVar(ncid,varid,my_data);
netcdf.close(ncid);
For some reason, the output ends up being a single number.
Could someone help me write the appropriate script?
Thank you so much!
Louise

You're right, the procedure for writing NetCDFs is rather convoluted and unintuitive, so it's hard to diagnose the problem. I wish I could offer more help!
