I once had a look at some data that came from some machine that was used fo=
r in vitro analysis of cells.

The data format seemed a bit funny.  There were some rows, but many columns=
..  IIRC, the length of time the monitoring was done determined the number o=
f columns, and the number of rows corresponded I think to the input channel=
s.

My question is this.  Is this very common thing to see?  How likely are we =
in today's world now that we are starting to look at data and start to proc=
ess it to see data that looks like this?  I wouldn't blink an eye at a tabl=
e with 100 million rows, but a table with 100 rows and 100 million columns =
might confuse me.

Thank you!
