Default data type for read_csv

Open MariusMerkleQC opened this issue 1 year ago • 8 comments

Problem description

In pandas, one could set a default value for dtype in the read_csv function. In polars, it is only possible to provide a dictionary mapping from column name to data type or a list of data types with one entry per column.

It would be great to add the default value for dtype to polars. 🚀
