Hi all, I am working on PySpark (*Python 3.6 and Spark 2.1.1*) and trying to fetch data from an excel file using *spark.read.format("com.crealytics.spark.excel")*, but it is inferring double for a date type column.
The detailed description is given here (the question I posted) - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45713699/inferschema-using-spark-read-formatcom-crealytics-spark-excel-is-inferring-d Found it is a probable bug with the crealytics excel read package. Can somebody help me with a workaround for this? Thanks, Aakash.
