     Note that, for <b>DecimalType(38,0)*</b>, the table above intentionally 
does not cover all other combinations of scales and precisions because 
currently we only infer decimal type like `BigInteger`/`BigInt`. For example, 
1.1 is inferred as double type.
   - In PySpark, now we need Pandas 0.19.2 or upper if you want to use Pandas 
related functionalities, such as `toPandas`, `createDataFrame` from Pandas 
DataFrame, etc.
   - In PySpark, the behavior of timestamp values for Pandas related 
functionalities was changed to respect session timezone. If you want to use the 
old behavior, you need to set a configuration 
`spark.sql.execution.pandas.respectSessionTimeZone` to `False`. See 
[SPARK-22395](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22395) for details.

- - Since Spark 2.3, when either broadcast hash join or broadcast nested loop 
join is applicable, we prefer to broadcasting the table that is explicitly 
specified in a broadcast hint. For details, see the section [Broadcast 
Hint](#broadcast-hint-for-sql-queries) and 
[SPARK-22489](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-22489).

- - Since Spark 2.3, when all inputs are binary, `functions.concat()` returns 
an output as binary. Otherwise, it returns as a string. Until Spark 2.3, it 
always returns as a string despite of input types. To keep the old behavior, 
set `spark.sql.function.concatBinaryAsString` to `true`.

`spark.sql.function.eltOutputAsString` to `true`.

nulls with booleans. In prior Spark versions, PySpark just ignores it and 
returns the original Dataset/DataFrame.
