Saikat Kanjilal commented on MAHOUT-1490:
-----------------------------------------

d.mutate( let("gain") equal { col("ArrDelay") - col("DepDelay") } ) seems 
rather verbose

how about something like the following:

d.mutate((v= gain) equal { col("ArrDelay") - col("DepDelay") } )

in the above expression v= would essentially create a defined identifier called 
v

I will put some more examples in the blog around select with this thinking

Also what about the other functions I am proposing like running a function 
around a dataframe (like map) or the slicing functionality around R, should we 
keep those as part of this proposal?
