#### 8.2.54 table ¶

Class: table ¶

  Tabular data array containing multiple columnar variables.

  A `table` is a tabular data structure that collects multiple parallel named variables. Each variable is treated like a column. (Possibly a multi-columned column, if that makes sense.) The types of variables may be heterogeneous.

  A table object is like an SQL table or resultset, or a relation, or a DataFrame in R or Pandas.

  A table is an array in itself: its size is nrows-by-nvariables, and you can index along the rows and variables by indexing into the table along dimensions 1 and 2.

  A note on accessing properties of a `table` array: Because .-indexing is used to access the variables inside the array, it can’t also be directly used to access properties as well. Instead, do `t.Properties.<property>` for a table `t`. That will give you a property instead of a variable. (And due to this mechanism, it will cause problems if you have a `table` with a variable named `Properties`. Try to avoid that.)

Instance Variable of `table`: ``cellstr`` VariableNames ¶

  The names of the variables in the table, as a cellstr row vector.

Instance Variable of `table`: ``cell`` VariableValues ¶

  A cell vector containing the values for each of the variables. `VariableValues(i)` corresponds to `VariableNames(i)`.

Instance Variable of `table`: ``cellstr`` RowNames ¶

  An optional list of row names that identify each row in the table. This is a cellstr column vector, if present.
