> Hi, it seems as you wanted questions and issues here and not in github.
> I was trying to convert a nested dictionary creating my own schema without success, it seems like it should and I get an unintuitive error message. When I execute the code below I get the error message "pyarrow.lib.ArrowTypeError: Could not convert b with type str: was expecting tuple of (key, value) pair"
> {code:java}
> import pyarrow as pa
> a = {'a': {'b': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], 'c': [3, 2, 1], 'd': [1, 2]}}
> struct = pa.struct([pa.field('b', pa.int32()), pa.field('c', pa.int32()), pa.field('d', pa.int32())])
> schema = pa.schema([pa.field('a', struct)])
> a_pa = pa.Table.from_pydict(a, schema)
> {code}
