Module ADT.Table

Description

ADT.Table is a generic module for manipulating tables.

Each table contains one or several columns. Each column is associated with a name, the column name. Optionally, one can provide a column type. The Table module can do a number of operations on a given table, like computing the sum of a column, grouping, sorting etc.

All column references are case insensitive. A column can be referred to by its position (starting from zero). All operations are non-destructive. That means that a new table object will be returned after, for example, a sort.
