Thanks!

> [C++] Support float16 in writing/reading parquet

>                 Key: ARROW-17464
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17464
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: C++, Parquet, Python
>            Reporter: Anja Boskovic
>            Assignee: Anja Boskovic
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: parquet

> Half-float values are not supported in Parquet. Here is a previous issue that 
> talks about that: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1647
> So, this will not work:
> {code:java}
> import pyarrow as pa
> import pyarrow.parquet as pq
> import numpy as np
> arr = pa.array(np.float16([0.1, 2.2, 3]))
> table = pa.table({'a': arr})
> pq.write_table(table, "test_halffloat.parquet") {code}
> {{This is a proposal to store float16 values in Parquet as FixedSizeBinary, 
> and then restore them to float16 when reading them back in.}}
