> In the docs for {{schema()}}, the ellipses argument is documented as "named
> list of data types".
> However, if I create a schema using a named list, e.g.
>
> {code:java}
> share_schema <- schema(
> list(
> company = utf8(),
> price = float64(),
> date = date32()
> )
> )
> {code}
> I get the error: \{{Error: !is.null(nms <- names(.list)) is not TRUE }}
> We should:
> # Rephrase the documentation of that argument so it doesn't say to use a
> named list
> # Update the error message shown if a named list is supplied to be a little
> clearer about what the user has done wrong
