public abstract class TextRowCountEstimator
extends java.lang.Object
```
This returns a row count estimation for files associated with a file pattern.

Nested Classes
Modifier and Type	Class	Description
`static class`	`TextRowCountEstimator.Builder`	Builder for `TextRowCountEstimator`.
`static class`	`TextRowCountEstimator.LimitNumberOfFiles`	This strategy stops sampling if we sample enough number of bytes.
`static class`	`TextRowCountEstimator.LimitNumberOfTotalBytes`	This strategy stops sampling when total number of sampled bytes are more than some threshold.
`static class`	`TextRowCountEstimator.NoEstimationException`	An exception that will be thrown if the estimator cannot get an estimation of the number of lines.
`static class`	`TextRowCountEstimator.SampleAllFiles`	This strategy samples all the files.
`static interface`	`TextRowCountEstimator.SamplingStrategy`	Sampling Strategy shows us when should we stop reading further files.
