    Create a frame with data from a TensorFlow records file

    TensorFlow records are the standard data format for TensorFlow. The recommended format for TensorFlow is a TFRecords file
    containing tf.train.Example protocol buffers. The tf.train.Example protocol buffers encodes (which contain Features as a field).
    https://www.tensorflow.org/how_tos/reading_data

    During Import, the API parses TensorFlow DataTypes as below:

    * Int64List => IntegerType or LongType
    * FloatList => FloatType or DoubleType
    * Any other DataType (Ex: String) => BytesList

    Parameters
    ----------

    :param tf_path:(str) Full path to TensorFlow records
    :param schema: (Optional(list[tuple(str, type)] or list[str])) There are different options for specifying a schema:

    * Provide the full schema for the frame as a list of tuples (string column name and data type)
    * Provide the column names as a list of strings.  Column data types will be inferred, based on the data.

    :return: frame with data from TensorFlow records

    Examples
    --------

        >>> file_path = "../datasets/cities.csv"
