I agree, this sounds really nice. > I really disagree that we need a data frame type structure; they're an > abomination in R, they try to accommodate event records and time > series, and do neither well. Just to clarify (since I think the original suggestion was mine), I don't want to copy R's data frame (which I never quite understood, anyway), but I'd like some standardized data structure, ideally with an option to label columns, and functions to slice and join. The underlying structure can just be a list of columns (Vector) or whatever. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
