title: 'basetable: Fast and Memory-Efficient Base R Table Manipulation'
version: 1.4.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.basetable
abstract: A tabular data manipulation, exploration and validation toolkit with a base
  R-style interface (subset, transform, aggregate, merge, split) and no external computation
  dependency. Grouping, joins, ordering, filtering, reshaping and delimited-file reading
  run in a bundled 'C++' engine that uses multiple threads for the heavier operations.
  Grouped reducers accumulate in compiled code without materialising intermediate
  columns, so grouped aggregation and counting allocate close to nothing. Results
  are returned as an ordinary data frame with a light 'basetable' class.
