# Description
Pretty much all operations/commands in Nushell assume that the column
names/keys in a record and thus also in a table (which consists of a
list of records) are unique.
Access through a string-like cell path should refer to a single column
or key/value pair and our output through `table` will only show the last
mention of a repeated column name.
```nu
[[a a]; [1 2]]
╭─#─┬─a─╮
│ 0 │ 2 │
╰───┴───╯
```
While the record parsing already either errors with the
`ShellError::ColumnDefinedTwice` or silently overwrites the first
occurence with the second occurence, the table literal syntax `[[header
columns]; [val1 val2]]` currently still allowed the creation of tables
(and internally records with more than one entry with the same name.
This is not only confusing, but also breaks some assumptions around how
we can efficiently perform operations or in the past lead to outright
bugs (e.g. #8431 fixed by #8446).
This PR proposes to make this an error.
After this change another hole which allowed the construction of records
with non-unique column names will be plugged.
## Parts
- Fix `SE::ColumnDefinedTwice` error code
- Remove previous tests permitting duplicate columns
- Deny duplicate column in table literal eval
- Deny duplicate column in const eval
- Deny duplicate column in `from nuon`
# User-Facing Changes
`[[a a]; [1 2]]` will now return an error:
```
Error: nu:🐚:column_defined_twice
× Record field or table column used twice
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ [[a a]; [1 2]]
· ┬ ┬
· │ ╰── field redefined here
· ╰── field first defined here
╰────
```
this may under rare circumstances block code from evaluating.
Furthermore this makes some NUON files invalid if they previously
contained tables with repeated column names.
# Tests + Formatting
Added tests for each of the different evaluation paths that materialize
tables.
Add `--ignore-errors` flag to reject.
This is a PR in reference to #10215 as select has the flag, but reject
hasn't
user can now add `-i` or `--ignore-errors` flag to turn every cell path
into option.
```nushell
> let arg = [0 5 a c]
> [[a b];[1 2] [3 4] [5 6]] | reject $a | to nuon
error index to large
# ----
> let arg = [0 5 a c]
> [[a b];[1 2] [3 4] [5 6]] | reject $a -i | to nuon
[[a, b]; [1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]]
```
This PR is in relation to #10215
# Description
This PR introduces `reject` to receive list of columns or rows as
argument.
This change is similar to change of `select` and the code used is
similar.
# User-Facing Changes
The user will be able to pass a list as rejection arguments.
```nushell
let arg = [ type size ]
[[name type size]; [ cargo.toml file 20mb ] [ Cargo.lock file 20mb] [src dir 100mb]] | reject $arg
```
# Description
This PR fixes `reject` failing when providing row items in ascending
order.
# User-Facing Changes
users can now `reject` multiple rows independently of each other.
```nushell
let foo = [[a b]; [ 1 2] [3 4] [ 5 6]]
# this will work independant of the order
print ($foo | reject 2 1)
print ($foo | reject 1 2)
```

This PR just tidies up some tests by removing unused code:
1. If the filesystem is not touched, don't use the filesystem
playground/sandbox
2. If the filesystem is not touched, don't specify the `cwd`
3. If the command is short, don't bother wrapping it in `pipeline()`
4. If the command doesn't have quotes, don't bother with a `r#"..."#`
raw string
Part of #8670.
# Description
Prevents redefining fields in a record, for example `{a: 1, a: 2}` would
now error.

# User-Facing Changes
Is technically a breaking change. If you relied on this behaviour to
give you the last value, your code will now error.

This PR makes `?` work with `reject`. For example:
```bash
> {} | reject foo
Error: nu:🐚:column_not_found
× Cannot find column
╭─[entry #2:1:1]
1 │ {} | reject foo
· ───┬── ─┬─
· │ ╰── cannot find column 'foo'
· ╰── value originates here
╰────
> {} | reject foo?
╭──────────────╮
│ empty record │
╰──────────────╯
```
This was prompted by [a user
question](https://discord.com/channels/601130461678272522/614593951969574961/1091466428546306078).
I would like to get this in for 0.78, I think it's low-risk and I want
the `?` feature to be as polished as possible for its debut.
# Description
Require that any value that looks like it might be a number (starts with
a digit, or a '-' + digit, or a '+' + digits, or a special form float
like `-inf`, `inf`, or `NaN`) must now be treated as a number-like
value. Number-like syntax can only parse into number-like values.
Number-like values include: durations, ints, floats, ranges, filesizes,
binary data, etc.

Just making sure we see this for release notes 😅
This breaks any and all numberlike values that were treated as strings
before. Example, we used to allow `3,` as a bare word. Anything like
this would now require quotes or backticks to be treated as a string or
bare word, respectively.

This is a follow up from https://github.com/nushell/nushell/pull/7540.
Please provide feedback if you have the time!
## Summary
This PR lets you use `?` to indicate that a member in a cell path is
optional and Nushell should return `null` if that member cannot be
accessed.
Unlike the previous PR, `?` is now a _postfix_ modifier for cell path
members. A cell path of `.foo?.bar` means that `foo` is optional and
`bar` is not.
`?` does _not_ suppress all errors; it is intended to help in situations
where data has "holes", i.e. the data types are correct but something is
missing. Type mismatches (like trying to do a string path access on a
date) will still fail.
### Record Examples
```bash
{ foo: 123 }.foo # returns 123
{ foo: 123 }.bar # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 } | get bar # errors
{ foo: 123 } | get bar? # returns null
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz # errors because `baz` is not present on the result from `bar?`
{ foo: 123 }.bar.baz? # errors
{ foo: 123 }.bar?.baz? # returns null
```
### List Examples
```
〉[{foo: 1} {foo: 2} {}].foo
Error: nu:🐚:column_not_found
× Cannot find column
╭─[entry #30:1:1]

# Breaking changes
1. Column names with `?` in them now need to be quoted.
2. The `-i`/`--ignore-errors` flag has been removed from `get` and
`select`
1. After this PR, most `get` error handling can be done with `?` and/or
`try`/`catch`.
4. Cell path accesses like this no longer work without a `?`:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b.0
2
```
We had some clever code that was able to recognize that since we only
want row `0`, it's OK if other rows are missing column `b`. I removed
that because it's tricky to maintain, and now that query needs to be
written like:
```bash
〉[{a:1 b:2} {a:3}].b?.0
2
```
I think the regression is acceptable for now. I plan to do more work in
the future to enable streaming of cell path accesses, and when that
happens I'll be able to make `.b.0` work again.

# Description
The correction made here concerns the issue #8431. Indeed, the algorithm
initially proposed to remove elements of a `vector` performed a loop
with `remove` and an incident therefore appeared when several values
were equal because the deletion was done outside the length of the
vector:
```rust
let mut found = false;
for (i, col) in cols.clone().iter().enumerate() {
if col == col_name {
cols.remove(i);
vals.remove(i);
found = true;
}
}
```
Then, `[[a, a]; [1, 2]] | reject a: ` gave `thread 'main' panicked at
'removal index (is 1) should be < len (is 1)',
crates/nu-protocol/src/value/mod.rs:1213:54`.
The proposed correction is therefore the implementation of the
`retain_mut` utility dedicated to this functionality.
```rust
let mut found = false;
let mut index = 0;
cols.retain_mut(|col| {
if col == col_name {
found = true;
vals.remove(index);
false
} else {
index += 1;
true
}
});
```
I tackled some of the disabled `FIXME`/`#[ignore]` tests. Most were
straightforward to re-enable, and a few of them did not deserve to be
re-enabled.
