I haven't found a killer app for it yet, but more power to manipulate the data will give us more instant gratification in a variety of areas. Thanks for the examples. I tried this myself a while ago using Java in OpenOffice (pre 2.0); my focus was to have a data-structure playground where developers could start with data/tables and then manipulate the relationships of linked or nested objects in a programming language. http://thop.sourceforge.net/ (The 'website' link shows my initial examples.) I think there's a whole lot of fun waiting for us in this type of sandbox. You’re not the only one: the ability to run more powerful functions and play with richer datatypes is very cool.
