DataFrame is a tabular data structure for data analysis in [Pharo](https://pharo.org/), similar to [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) in Python or [data.frame](https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/base/versions/3.5.2/topics/data.frame) in R. It is a spreadsheet-like collection with an API specifically designed for data exploration and analysis.

A data frame is like a database inside a variable. It is an object which can be created, modified, copied, serialized, debugged, inspected, and garbage collected. It allows you to communicate with your data quickly and effortlessly, using just a few lines of code. DataFrame project is similar to [pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) library in Python or built-in [data.frame](https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/base/versions/3.5.3/topics/data.frame) class in R.
