# Columnar Storage
Column-oriented storage for analytical queries and aggregations.
## Usage
```nim
import barabadb/core/columnar
var batch = newColumnBatch()
var ageCol = batch.addInt64Col("age")
var nameCol = batch.addStringCol("name")
ageCol.appendInt64(25)
nameCol.appendString("Alice")
```
## Aggregations
```nim
echo ageCol.sumInt64()
echo ageCol.avgInt64()
echo ageCol.minInt64()
echo ageCol.maxInt64()
echo ageCol.count()
```
## Encoding
### RLE (Run-Length Encoding)
```nim
let rle = rleEncode(@[1'i64, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3])
```
### Dictionary Encoding
```nim
let dict = dictEncode(@["apple", "banana", "apple"])
```
## Column Types
| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `int32` | 32-bit integer |
| `int64` | 64-bit integer |
| `float32` | 32-bit float |
| `float64` | 64-bit float |
| `string` | Variable-length string |
| `bool` | Boolean |
## Use Cases
