Hello, I am having an issue with a large dataset I am using. My  
problem is I try to convert from an array to Narray and it seems like  
the size is changing.

To check this, in the middle of my script I wrote

puts f.size  
puts count.size  
puts count  
x=NArray.to\_na(count)  
puts x.size

the results  
900  
900  
[the numbers in a column]  
1754
