Creating DataFrame from json that contains "index" key/property causes error about danfojs HOT 6 CLOSED

The same happens if size key is present in data.

const df = new dfd.DataFrame(jsonData);

Interesting issue. Thanks for raising this. We have to update the internal name for index then, maybe adding an underscore before the name (_index). Would you like to fix this?

@mjarmoc Would you like to work on this?

I believe you just need to change the internal names, maybe add an underscore before them...for instance "index" can be "_index"

I was looking into it, planning to use Symbols instead of prefixing the field names to better avoid conflicts.
The issue is that the index property is exposed by the NDframe class and is documented here. At the same time accessing columns by name is also documented here. So, if the data contains a column named "index" the two collide. I don't think it can be fixed without breaking backwards compatibility and changing one of those.

I would still like to help fixing this, but don't know breaking which of those would be less of an issue.

Happened the same to me, but my JSON had a key named data... After change of this key on source to data_c, everything went ok.
