+The most efficient way to work with an Arrow `Table` is to access the column Vectors (which you can get with `getChild` and `getChildAt`).
+
+```js
+table.getChildAt(0).get(0); // 1
+```
+
+If you need to access the rows, you can iterate over the table and access a row proxy.
+
+```js
+for (const row of table) {
+    console.log(row);
+}
+```
