[R] How would you export a 3-dimensional array to an SQL database?

[Neuro LeSuperHéros]

Here's a way to flatten and unflatten your array.

a <-array(1:24, 2:4)
d <-dim(a)

flattened <-cbind(expand.grid(1:d[1],1:d[2],1:d[3]),as.vector(a))

unflattened <-array(flattened[,4],d)

identical(a,unflattened)
a==unflattened
