Dataiter Documentation
======================

Dataiter's :class:`.DataFrame` is a class for tabular data similar to R's
``data.frame``, implementing all common operations to manipulate data. It is
under the hood a dictionary of NumPy arrays and thus capable of fast vectorized
operations. You can consider it to be a light-weight alternative to Pandas with
a simple and consistent API. Performance-wise Dataiter relies on NumPy and Numba
and is likely to be at best comparable to Pandas.

Additionally Dataiter includes :class:`.ListOfDicts`, a class for manipulating
hierarchical data, such as from JSON APIs or document databases, and
:class:`.GeoJSON`, a class for manipulating data from GeoJSON files in a data
frame.
