+/// Struct to specify column chunks for which metadata is required.
+///
+/// Column chunks are identified by row group index and leaf column index (the 
index of the
+/// column in [`SchemaDescriptor::columns`], not the index of a root or Arrow 
field). This struct
+/// allows for specifying vertical slices of column chunk data (via 
[`Self::columns`]),
+/// horizontal slices (via [`Self::row_groups`]), or the intersection of the 
two
+/// (via [`Self::row_groups_and_columns`]).
+///
+/// At present this is only used to select elements of the [Page Index] for 
decoding.
+///
+/// # Examples
+///
+/// To select columns 0 and 1 from all row groups:
+/// ```rust
+/// # use parquet::file::metadata::ColumnChunkMask;
+/// let mask = ColumnChunkMask::columns([0, 1]);
+/// ```
+///
+/// To select all columns from row group 2:
+/// ```rust
+/// # use parquet::file::metadata::ColumnChunkMask;
+/// let mask = ColumnChunkMask::row_groups([2]);
+/// ```
+///
+/// To select columns 1 and 3 from row group 0:
+/// ```rust
+/// # use parquet::file::metadata::ColumnChunkMask;
+/// let mask = ColumnChunkMask::row_groups_and_columns([0], [1, 3]);
+/// ```
