frame
A data frame containing a list of isotope values for multiple
organisms. If there are $d$ isotope values and $s$
organisms, then the frame is assumed to contain $ds$ columns,
where for any $1 \leq i \leq s-1$ the columns $di$ to
$d(i+1)-1$ contain the isotope measurements for the $i$th
organism.
For each organism, the isotopes (columns) must be in the same
order.
