I didn't realize you had also asked here and I left a comment on your
StackOverflow question but it is possible to have more of a discussion here.
It's hard to answer this question without a better idea of what you want to do
with the data. For example, you can grab a specific column and cast if you
know the data type:
```
std::shared_ptr<ChunkedArray> column = table->column(0);
for (int i = 0; i < column->num_chunks(); i++) {
std::shared_ptr<Array> chunk = column->chunk(i);
std::shared_ptr<StringArray> str_chunk =
std::dynamic_pointer_cast<StringArray>(chunk);
for (int j = 0; j < str_chunk->length(); j++) {
// Note, there are various ways to access an item in StringArray and
GetString is probably
// the least efficient but simple for demos
std::cout << str_chunk->GetString(j) << std::endl;
}
}
```
