Daniel Dai commented on PIG-2353:
---------------------------------
We can use secondary sort to implement partitioned rank. However, I think
partitioned rank and non-partitioned rank may have to adopt a totally different
implementation. We can focus on non-partitioned rank first.
> RANK function like in SQL
