array to data.frame

Of course,  array -> data.frame is trivial for 2-dim arrays aka
matrices.  But Jorge had a 3-dim. array (of a special type,
namely a contingency table!) for which Peter gave the solution.

For most other 3-or-more-dim.arrays, there's no corresponding
data frame structure I can think of.

Hi,

How i can convert a array in to data.frame structure?

For example,

vinteesete<-array(c(1,0,6,4,22,29,11,7,6,2,8,7,21,25,5,6,1,0,11,6,14,24,13,10,2,2,15,13,14,17,9,8,1,2,16,9,14,23,9,6,6,2,17,13,10,20,7,5), 
dim=c(2,4,6), dimnames=list(grupo=c("I","II"), 
opiniao=c("Ma","Regular","Boa","MBoa",), 
relacao=c("atencao","sensibilidade","compreensao","tertempo","ouvir","envolvencia")))

as.data.frame(as.table(vinteesete))

(or as.data.frame.table(vinteesete), but with S4 methods coming in it
is increasingly considered bad style to apply methods to objects that
are not of the requisite class.)
