Load a feather-format object from the file path.
.. versionadded 0.20.0
Parameters
----------
path : str, path object or file-like object
Any valid string path is acceptable. The string could be a URL. Valid
URL schemes include http, ftp, s3, and file. For file URLs, a host is
expected. A local file could be:
``file://localhost/path/to/table.feather``.
If you want to pass in a path object, pandas accepts any
``os.PathLike``.
By file-like object, we refer to objects with a ``read()`` method,
such as a file handler (e.g. via builtin ``open`` function)
or ``StringIO``.
columns : sequence, default None
If not provided, all columns are read.
.. versionadded 0.24.0
nthreads : int, default 1
Number of CPU threads to use when reading to pandas.DataFrame.
.. versionadded 0.21.0
.. deprecated 0.24.0
use_threads : bool, default True
Whether to parallelize reading using multiple threads.
.. versionadded 0.24.0
Returns
-------
type of object stored in file
