> Hi,
> There seem to be several minor issues in Layout.md:
> 1. In the example for Struct type
> (https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/format/Layout.md#struct-type),
> the second array element is "{null, 2}" in the text, but in the Arrow
> representation, the value buffer for field 0 has "bob" in the corresponding
> slot. Either the text should be changed from "null" to "bob", or the Null
> count, Null bitmap buffer, and Offsets buffer should be changed to count the
> second element in field 0 as null.
> 2. In the same Struct type example, the third element in the Struct array is
> "null" in text, but the value buffer for field 1 has 3 in the corresponding
> slot in the Arrow representation. The Null count, Null bitmap buffer, and
> Value buffer should be changed to count the third element in field 1 as null.
> 3. In the Dictionary encoding section
> (https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/format/Layout.md#dictionary-encoding),
> there is a missing reference to "Message.fbs".
