I found pytables a few hours ago and skimmed through the manual, so this may be basic: is it possible to define a table column as an array of records ? For instance, say I have the python list [('aa',1,2.0), ('ab',2, 3.0), ... ('az',37,-2.0)], where each element is a len-3 tuple whose first element is StringCol(2), the second UInt16Col and the third Float32Col. The list as a whole has not fixed length (i.e. it may vary for different rows of the table). Ideally, I'd like to be able to access the tuple elements by name (as it's typical for records) but even regular indexing would be ok.
Thanks,
George
