## VersionedHDFSReader.scala
/**
 * Ever wondered how to read a simple versioned SequenceFile from HDFS with a
 * simple program (not being a Job).
 *
 * Summingbird and Scalding create these sequence files in Batch or HDFS mode.
 * I recoomend to add your own conversion stuff to write it to s.th. like CSV.
 * This allows to read in the data into R or Excel, for example. However this is
 * not designed to work with huge data sets (requires data to be aggregated in the
 * job or s.th. else to condense the data if it large). It can however be changed
 * easily to do so by directly writing output-data in the read-routine.
