Hello, our team is utilizing apache arrow in one of our projects. We were wondering if it is possible to create an array and store elements of different types. We basically looking for a way to store different types say Double, Int, String in a single array and be able to parse it when received by a different application.
we looked at all the array types and they all seem to be strongly typed DoubleArray, Int32Array etc ... Same is true for scalar types ** we are also wondering if it is possible to model the array as rows and not as columns ? I know this sounds like it goes against the apache arrow design of columnar format, we are would still like to know if it is possible and if so how it can be achieved. Thanks in Advanced, Eliran
