General:. Record Sets in
Glee are like tables of structures in other languages. A record
set is a special kind of sequence. Its first element lists the field names for
subsequent elements which comprise the table. They have facilities for adding
and deleting fields and records. Glee record sets do not impose a
discipline. They merely provide a mechanism for naming and thereby referring to
elements of a sequence. They make programs more readable. The methods of the
object also provide some powerful tools for common programming needs regarding
manipulation of tables.
