> It is not clear what the difference is between Tables and Record Batches is as described on [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/cpp/tables.html#tables]
> _A [{{arrow::Table}}|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/cpp/api/table.html#_CPPv4N5arrow5TableE] is a two-dimensional dataset with chunked arrays for columns_
> _A [{{arrow::RecordBatch}}|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/cpp/api/table.html#_CPPv4N5arrow11RecordBatchE] is a two-dimensional dataset of a number of contiguous arrays_
> Or maybe the distinction between _chunked arrays_ and _contiguous arrays_ can be clarified.
