-------------------------------------

Test Setup

For simplicity, let's assume that we have a table with following data setup.

R1 -> CF1 with columns c1-c5. (5 cells all with 3 versions)

R2 -> CF1 with columns c1     (1 cell one version)
      CF2 with columns c1,c2  (2 cells. c1=2 versions and c2=3 versions)
      CF3 with columns c1-c3  (3 cells one version)
      CF4 with columns c1-c4  (4 cells one version)

R3 -> CF1 with columns c1-c9  (9 cells one version)
      CF2 with columns c10-c20 (10 cells one version)
      
Running the CellCounter program will print the following stats:

Total Number of rows = 3
Number of distinct CF = CF1-CF4 = 4
Number of distinct Cells = c1-c20 = 20
Total number of Cells (across all rows and CFs) = 34
Avg Number of CFs per Row = 4/3 = 1.33
Avg number of Cells per CF = 34/4 = 8.5

Versions:
CF1:c1 = 3 versions
CF1:c2 = 3 versions
CF1:c3 = 3 versions
CF1:c4 = 3 versions
CF1:c5 = 3 versions

CF2:c1 = 2 versions
CF2:c2 = 3 versions

all other CF:c combination = 1 version.

Ted: Is this your expectation? Please let me know.

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: util
>    Affects Versions: 0.90.0
>            Reporter: Ted Yu
>             Fix For: 0.92.0
>
>
> Currently RowCounter only retrieves latest version for each row.
> Some applications would store multiple versions for the same row.
> RowCounter should accept a new parameter for the number of versions to return.
> Scan object would be configured with version parameter (for scan.maxVersions).
> Then the following API should be called:
> {code}
>   public KeyValue[] raw() {
> {code}
