Python Dataframes

[tranman]

Hi,

I want to hold data in go that is essentially a grid-like format. Similar to what you would find on an xl spreadsheet.

Python has pandas dataframe. Is there anything similar and stable for go?

Thanks,

Hi @tranman,

There are several possible options I think, and it depends on what you need.

• A basic data grid can be made with basic data types: a slice of slices, or an array of arrays. Seriously, this can be a viable choice to avoid over-engineering the solution.
• For handling numeric grid data, have a look at Gonum.
• If you need functionality close to Pandas Dataframe, I found an article that discusses three Go packages of that kind. (Disclaimer: I don’t know any of these.)

@christophberger,

Understood and I agree I’ll take a look at Gonum as well

Thanks
