Beginner here.\nWe are trying to get started with this challenge by working on colab notebooks. So we uploaded the zip files on google drive, but now we are unable to extract the contents of those zipfiles, due to their large size. We tried manual extraction by connecting the third party apps on google drive, zip file too large. We tried via cmd line too, \"unzip\", \"jar xf\", and \"7z\", these three commands were tried, but these too failed, probably because of the large size of zip file. So how should we go about getting the extracted data on google drive?\nOr is there a better alternative than Colab?
