Explanation: Many questions that appear on this list are about how to
organize and format data -- unsurprising, as data structures are an

and data science in particular. Those who are interested in such
queries and/or  the related area of reproducible research may find the
stupefying mess that biologist microscopists have to contend with to
be of interest:
