Title: PingPong: A Domain-Specific Language for Data Processing with Static Type Checking

Abstract: This paper details the type system and implementation behind an explicitly-typed monomorphic language domain-specific to data processing. In particular, this paper offers two novel contributions over other work in this area: (1) consideration of unique columns and optional columns and associated typing, and (2) type recommendations built into our custom language's compile phase. This paper begins with motivation and related work for typed dataframes, leading into novel type systems incorporating our desired features. Then, it presents the system/language design of a table-specific language "PingPong" based on this theory, as well as a proof-of-concept implementation.
