A Column is simply a typed PersistentVector that allows nils.

this type or nil.

(column-type-mismatch actual-dtype expected-dtype)
create-column
(create-column coll dtype)
(create-column coll)
Creates a new Column containing the contents of coll. The type of the
Column's contents can either be given (dytpe) or infered. If a column type

A Column is a indexed structure whose elements are all either nil or the same
type.
