Available on crate feature polars-io only.

Infer the schema of a CSV file by reading through the first n rows of the file, with max_read_rows controlling the maximum number of rows to read.

If max_read_rows is not set, the whole file is read to infer its schema.

Returns - inferred schema - number of rows used for inference. - bytes read
