> DatumReader has method "skip_data" which skips data with the help of a decoder. I suggest applying this method for DataFileReader to skip a lot of useless data.
> New method "skip_data" for DataFileReader would accept the argument "number" which means number of datums that need skip.
> Test for new fixture was written in "test_datafile.py". The test removes 50 misses from coverage.
