Outer joins add the placeholder '---' that is used as some sort of NULL value. However select operations on such relations would always fail, because relations are supposed to only contain values of class rstring, and the placeholder was added as a regular string. As a consequence, automatic casting would always fail, and the select would always raise an exception. Added a new test case with this specific case in mind.

This object defines a relation (as a group of consistent tuples) and operations.
|
||
|
||
A relation is a particular kind of set, which has a number of named attributes and
|
||
a number of tuples, which must express a value for every attribute.
|
||
|
||
Set operations like union, intersection and difference are restricted and can only be
|
||
performed on relations which share the same set of named attributes.
|
||
|
||
The constructor optionally accepts a filename and then it will load the relation from
|
||
that file.
|
||
|
||
If no parameter is supplied an empty relation is created.
|
||
|
||
Files need to be comma separated as described in RFC4180.
|
||
|
||
The first line need to contain the attributes of the relation while the
|
||
following lines contain the tuples of the relation.
|
||
|
||
An empty relation needs a header, and can be filled using the insert()
|
||
method.
