# The main purpose of the pattern module is to facilitate automated processes
# for (text) data acquisition and (linguistical) data mining.
# Often, this involves a tangle of messy text files and custom formats to store the data.
# The Datasheet class offers a useful matrix (cfr. MS Excel) in Python code.
# It can be saved as a CSV text file that is both human/machine readable.
# See also: examples/01-web/03-twitter.py
# A Datasheet can have headers: a (name, type)-tuple for each column.
# In this case, imported columns will automatically map values to the defined type.
# Supported values that are imported and exported correctly:
# str, unicode, int, float, bool, Date, None
# For other data types, custom encoder and decoder functions can be used.

("id", INTEGER), # Define the column headers.

print(ds.rows[0]) # A list of rows.
print(ds.columns[1]) # A list of columns, where each column is a list of values.

# This can be slow for large tables. If you need a fast way to do matrix math,
# use numpy (http://numpy.scipy.org/) instead.
# The purpose of Table is data storage.
