<p/> With Miller you get to use named fields without needing to count
positional indices. This is something the Unix toolkit always could have done,
and arguably always should have done. It operates on key-value-pair data while
the familiar Unix tools operate on integer-indexed fields: if the natural
data structure for the latter is the array, then Miller&rsquo;s natural data
structure is the insertion-ordered hash map. This encompasses a <b>variety of
data formats</b>, including but not limited to the familiar CSV. (Miller can
handle positionally-indexed data as a special case.)
