Hello spark gurus, Could you please shed some light on what is the purpose of having two identical functions in RDD, RDD.context [1] and RDD.sparkContext [2].
RDD.context seems to be used more frequently across the source code. [1] https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/rdd/RDD.scala#L1693 [2] https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/rdd/RDD.scala#L146 Kind Regards, Sergey
