super-wide test projecct

[wibeasley]

@thomasnwilson, related to the problems we had the other week, can you create a super wide (and short) test project on the bbmc instance?

Besides record_id, could you add 3000 column names that follow the pattern tediously_long_variable_name_0001 ... tediously_long_variable_name_3000. Include a single populated row, where the 3000 cells are populated sequentially 1 through 3,000. That way, we have more assurance that the cells aren't being shifted.

I hope we don't have to start batching both horizontally and vertically. That's probably enough motivation to develop the EAV routine more (See #145)

Sure thing. Not sure if I can get to it today, but I will try.

It's going to take me a long time to create all of those variables.

[thomasnwilson]

...and even longer to enter the data.

Would it help to autopopulate it in Excel (with sequencing) or R (and output the variable names to a csv)?

[thomasnwilson]

I don't trust those newfangled capabilities. The only way to do something right is through a little sweat equity.

Closing this issue and expressing my sincerest apologies for not using my sarcasm font on my previous comments. Shame on me.
