* Package name : libdata-table-perl Version : 1.72 Upstream Author : Yingyao Zhou & Guangzhou Zou * URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Data-Table * License : Perl (Artistic or GPL-1+) Programming Lang: Perl Description : manipulate data tables in perl (as in R) This perl package uses perl5 objects to make it easy for manipulating spreadsheet data among disk files, database, and Web publishing. . A table object contains a header and a two-dimensional array of scalars. Four class methods Data::fromFile, Data::Table::fromCSV, Data::Table::fromTSV, and Data::Table::fromSQL allow users to create a table object from a CSV/TSV file or a database SQL selection in a snap. . Table methods provide basic access, add, delete row(s) or column(s) operations, as well as more advanced sub-table extraction, table sorting, record matching via keywords or patterns, table merging, and web publishing. Data::Table class also provides a straightforward interface to other popular Perl modules such as DBI and GD::Graph.
