Add `AssociateTo`
TiagoCavalcante opened this issue · comments
I started looking at this and it is not too difficult. However it brings up what I think is a weakness we currently have with associations: they aren't stored in any sort of efficient or Python-friendly way, but instead are S-expressions.
And this makes things like AssociateTo
a little more cumbersome.
So instead what I am thinking of now is taking a longer view and adding a Python dictionary representation that is most useful here, but also useful in the other operations.
And by its nature suggests adding to_python()
and from_python()
routines which would also be desirable.
This already was added.
