[Paraview] python: get names of data arrays

[Ian Krukow]

Hi,

I thought it should be quite simple, but I have not found it yet.
How can I get the names of the data arrays of an existing source in a 
python script? Or, alternatively, how can I check whether a data array 
with a certain name exists (this is what I actually want to do)?

The reason: I have different data sets, where the data arrays are named 
differently (two possibilities), but I want to do the same operation on 
both of them. Therefore, I would like to check, which of the names is 
present in the dataset I have loaded, and by that pick the correct names.

Kind regards
Ian
