    "Dask Bag implements operations like `map`, `filter`, `groupby` and aggregations on collections of Python objects. It does this in parallel and in small memory using Python iterators. It is similar to a parallel version of itertools or a Pythonic version of the PySpark RDD.\n",

    "Dask Bags are often used to do simple preprocessing on log files, JSON records, or other user defined Python objects.\n",
