> I would interpret this to mean that only 8 bits are significant and that the bit pattern represents an unsigned value. I don't disagree that this is an interpretation of the specification, but it also by no means the only one. I think the correct behaviour would need to be clarified before making any changes here. > Irrespective of what the parquet cli displays for the value, it certainly does not display a null, implying the value is valid and within the range of legal values. Given it spits out an objectively invalid value, I think a perhaps more reasonable take is that the data is invalid and the behaviour undefined. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
