DataFrame

Of possible interest, a C++ replacement for Pandas: https://github.com/hosseinmoein/DataFrame

Python is a dynamically -- run-time -- typed language. That creates big advantages and big disadvantages. The advantage: it makes it very versatile and heterogeneously functional. For example, you could easily have heterogeneous containers. You could easily loop through them and your loop variable is dynamically evaluated. Also, you could have heterogeneous interfaces, … The disadvantage: it is very inefficient. For example, in the above loop, the loop variable type must be determined at each iteration. That’s extremely inefficient -- although there are ways under certain circumstances to avoid that. C++, on the other hand, is statically and moderately-strongly typed language. So, you cannot – without using pointers which is inefficient – have heterogeneous containers because you must know all types at compile time. Also, you cannot have

I have implemented a C++ library with similar interface and functionality to Pandas at https://github.com/hosseinmoein/DataFrame. It still lacks a lot of functionalities which I will add gradually. I appreciates your constructive criticisms and suggestions. I also published two articles about it in Linkedin at https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/pythons-pandas-c-update-hossein-moein/
