 To create a `FileReader` object, you only need to specify the file name.
-And then you could call `FileWriter.read()` to read multiple samples from the FFReocrd file.
+And then you could call `FileReader.read_batch()` to read multiple samples from the FFReocrd file.
 It accepts a list of indices as input and outputs the corresponding samples data.
 
 The reader would validate the checksum before returning the data if `check_data = True`.
