Make a copy of your RDD with an extra entry in the beginning to offset. The you can zip the two RDDs and run a map to generate an RDD of differences.

Here is a spark challenge for you! I have a data set where each entry has a date. I would like to identify gaps in the dates greater larger a given length. For example, if the data were log entries, then the gaps would tell me when I was missing log data for long periods of time. What is the most efficient way to achieve this in Spark? -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/spark-challenge-zip-with-next-tp21423.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@spark.apache.org ________________________________________________________ The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and/or proprietary to Capital One and/or its affiliates.
