| FrameExtensionsExpandColumnsR Method (FrameR, String, IEnumerableString) |
Creates a new data frame where the specified columns are expanded based on runtime
structure of the objects they store. A column can be expanded if it is
`Series<string, T>` or `IDictionary<K, V>` or if it is any .NET object with readable
properties.
## Example
Given a data frame with a series that contains tuples, you can expand the
tuple members and get a frame with columns `S.Item1` and `S.Item2`:
let df = frame [ "S" => series [ 1 => (1, "One"); 2 => (2, "Two") ] ]
df.ExpandColumns ["S"]
## Parameters
- `names` - Names of columns in the original data frame to be expanded
- `frame` - Input data frame whose columns will be expanded
