core/table-1.0.0
A table.
Description
A table is represented as a list of columns, where each entry is a
column
object, containing the data and some additional information.
The data itself may be stored inline as text, or in binary in either
row- or column-major order by use of the strides
property on the
individual column arrays.
Each column in the table must have the same first (slowest moving) dimension.

A table is represented as a list of columns, where each entry is a
[column](ref:core/column-1.0.0)
object, containing the data and some additional information.
The data itself may be stored inline as text, or in binary in either
row- or column-major order by use of the `strides` property on the
individual column arrays.
Each column in the table must have the same first (slowest moving)
dimension.
