It also implements a class-agnostic approach to R programming, supporting vector, matrix and data frame-like objects and their popular extensions ('units', 'integer64', 'xts', 'tibble', 'data.table', 'sf', 'pdata.frame'), enabling its seamless integration with the bulk of the R ecosystem. This article introduces the package's key components and design principles in a structured way, supported by a rich set of examples. A small benchmark demonstrates its computational performance.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.05038v5","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2403.05038v5.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"collapse-advanced-and-fast-statistical","repo_url":"https://github.com/SebKrantz/collapse","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
