Prints a summary of columns count and its dtypes but not per column
information:

Pipe output of DataFrame.info to buffer instead of sys.stdout, get
buffer content and writes to a text file:

>>> import io
>>> buffer = io.StringIO()
>>> df.info(buf=buffer)
>>> s = buffer.getvalue()
>>> with open("df_info.txt", "w",
... encoding="utf-8") as f: # doctest: +SKIP
... f.write(s)

The `memory_usage` parameter allows deep introspection mode, specially
useful for big DataFrames and fine-tune memory optimization:

>>> random_strings_array = np.random.choice(['a', 'b', 'c'], 10 ** 6)
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({
... 'column_1': np.random.choice(['a', 'b', 'c'], 10 ** 6),
