thanks for all the answers. I think also ggplot2 requires data.frames.If you
want to add variable to data.frame you have to use attach, detach. Right?Any
more links that discuss thoe two different approaches?Alex

This is partially a matter of subjectve opinion, and so pointless; but
I would point out that data frames are the canonical structure for a

As for mutate() etc., that's about UI's and user friendliness, and
imho my ho is meaningless.
Best,
