What is a dataset with regards to SAQL?
In the documentaiton for SAQL I see that they qualify data that can be quried as being stored in a dataset. What's a dataset exactly? Is the the standard Apex data structures (Map, List, Set)? My hope is that this could play the role that LINQ plays in .Net.

A dataset isn't an Apex construct, its part of the analytics cloud (aka Salesforce wave) and is a number of measures and dimensions that can be drilled into, used to back dashboard component etc. Essentially datasets are what you explore via the analytics cloud.
