> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: C++

>
> Just did this on the Python side. In later analytics routines, passing in
> scalar values (example: Array + Scalar) requires some kind of container. Some
> systems, like the R language, solve this problem with length-1 arrays, but we
> should do some analysis of use cases and figure out what will work best for
> Arrow.
