Hi,
R contains many good datasets which would be valuable in other
platforms as well. My intention is to use R datasets on SQL Server as
a sample tables. Is there a package that would do automatic conversion
from the dataset "schema" into a SQL Server CREATE TABLE statement
(and INSERT INTO statements)?
For example.
> str(cars)
'data.frame': 50 obs. of 2 variables:
$ speed: num 4 4 7 7 8 9 10 10 10 11 ...
$ dist : num 2 10 4 22 16 10 18 26 34 17 ...
>
would become
create table dbo.cars (
id int identity(1,1) not null,
speed int not null,
dist int not null,
constraint PK_id primary key clustered (id ASC)
on [PRIMARY]
)
insert into dbo.cars
values (N'4', N'2'),
(N'4', N'10'),
(N'7', N'4'),
etc.
