    <p><i>Node</i>:  <code>DiscreteData_t</code>
+   <p><tt>DiscreteData_t</tt> nodes are intended for the storage of fields of data not usually identified as part of the flow solution, such as fluxes or equation residuals.
+   <p>The description for these functions is similar to the <a href="#flow-solution"><tt>FlowSolution_t</tt></a> node as described above.
+   To read and write the discrete data, use <a href="#accessing-a-node"><tt>cg_goto</tt></a> to access the <tt>DiscreteData_t</tt> node, then <a href="#data-arrays"><tt>cg_array_read</tt></a> and <a href="#data-arrays"><tt>cg_array_write</tt></a>.
+   The dimensions provided to the array-write family of functions must match the dimensions specified by the <tt>Zone_t</tt> and DiscreteData_t</tt> nodes.
+   Use <a href="#grid-location"><tt>cg_gridlocation_write</tt></a> and <a href="#rind-layers"><tt>cg_rind_write</tt></a> under the <tt>DiscreteData_t</tt> node, as required.
