distill.data.frame

mission

parent

<p>Distills a data.frame with respect to a variable.  Recovers everything known about the variable, recursively mining metadata.</p>

internal

Defines a compact data format that includes metadata.
The function fold() creates the format by converting
from data.frame, and unfold() converts back. The predictability
of the folded format supports reusability of data processing tools,
while the presence of embedded metadata improves portability,
interpretability, and efficiency.
