[R] why data.frame, mutate package and not lists

[Alaios]

Hi all,I have seen data.frames and operations from the mutate package getting really popular. In the last years I have been using extensively lists, is there any reason to not use lists and use other data types for data manipulation and storage?
Any article that describe their differences? I would like to thank you for your replyRegardsAlex
