6. New vignette _Using `.SD` for Data Analysis_, a deep dive into use cases for the `.SD` variable to help illuminate this topic which we've found to be a sticking point for beginning and intermediate `data.table` users, [#3412](https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/issues/3412).

7. Added a note to `?frank` clarifying that ranking is being done according to C sorting (i.e., like `forder`), [#2328](https://github.com/Rdatatable/data.table/issues/2328). Thanks to @cguill95 for the request.

\title{Fast rank}
\description{
Similar to \code{base::rank} but \emph{much faster}. And it accepts vectors, lists, data.frames or data.tables as input. In addition to the \code{ties.method} possibilities provided by \code{base::rank}, it also provides \code{ties.method="dense"}.

Like \code{\link{forder}}, sorting is done in "C-locale"; in particular, this may affect how capital/lowercase letters are ranked. See Details on \code{forder} for more.

\code{bit64::integer64} type is also supported.
