"""Initialize Scene with Reader and Compositor objects.

To load data `filenames` and preferably `reader` must be specified. If `filenames` is provided without `reader`
then the available readers will be searched for a Reader that can support the provided files. This can take
a considerable amount of time so it is recommended that `reader` always be provided. Note without `filenames`

If ``filenames`` is provided without ``reader`` then the available readers
will be searched for a Reader that can support the provided files. This
can take a considerable amount of time so it is recommended that
``reader`` always be provided. Note without ``filenames`` the Scene is
created with no Readers available requiring Datasets to be added
manually::

scn = Scene()
scn['my_dataset'] = Dataset(my_data_array, **my_info)

Further, notice that it is also possible to load a combination of files
or sets of files each requiring their specific reader. For that
``filenames`` needs to be a `dict` (see parameters list below), like

Agree. Done.


scn = Scene(filenames={'nwcsaf-pps_nc': glob('/path/to/nwc/saf/pps/files/*'),
'modis_l1b': glob('/path/to/modis/lvl1/files/*')})


Args:
filenames (iterable or dict): A sequence of files that will be used to load data from. A ``dict`` object
should map reader names to a list of filenames for that reader.
