How to write to textfile using Dask

Dask Dataframes works very similar to pandas DataFrames it can store and write data in many formats similarly. Here we will write the data in textfile with the popular parquet formats.

Step 1- Importing Libraries.

import dask.dataframe as dd

Step 2- Reading the file.

We have to define the path of the dataset from where we are going to read the text and process later.

df = dd.read_csv('./data/people/*.csv')

Step 3- Saving the file in writable format.

df.to_parquet('./tmp/people_parquet2', write_index=False)

we will store our data in Parquet format which is more efficient for computers to write.
