Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named; start by locating the existing Parquet Java modules and test conventions before designing the new comparator module. Use the stated regression-testing scenario to define comparison behavior, including sorting elements in lists. Done means two Parquet files can be compared and differences are reported in a clear message.
