> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3794
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3794
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: R
> Reporter: Javier Luraschi
> Assignee: Romain François
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Time Spent: 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The Arrow:BINARY type maps better to R's raw(), while Arrow::INT8 maps better
> to R's integer() since currently, NA's are not supported when collecting
> INT8's and numerical operations can't be performed against raw().
