Data contains both structured data, unstructured data

Hello, I just took the 1st week course and I have a question about structured data and unstructured data. I understood that structured data is represented by columns with clear characteristics value(size, price, id,etc) On the other hand, audio, images, and text are unstructured data.

If one dataset has columns(id, rating, price, description) and the description contains text as a value, is this unstructured data or structured data? or it just a set of structured data + unstructured data…?

My take is that the use of strictly binary language is not always helpful, but in general if there are columns with names and types I would likely call the overall dataset structured. That said, you will need to apply the techniques of unstructured data processing to extract meaning from specific columns that are themselves text, audio, or image.
