> This is a bugs about types that result an array of null when creating 
> dataframe using python.
> Python's array.array have richer type than python itself, e.g. we can have 
> array('f',[1,2,3]) and array('d',[1,2,3]). Codes in spark-sql didn't take 
> this into consideration which might cause a problem that you get an array of 
> null values when you have array('f') in your rows.
> A simple code to reproduce this is:
> from pyspark import SparkContext
> from pyspark.sql import SQLContext,Row,DataFrame
> from array import array
> sc = SparkContext()
> sqlContext = SQLContext(sc)
> row1 = Row(floatarray=array('f',[1,2,3]), doublearray=array('d',[1,2,3]))
> rows = sc.parallelize([ row1 ])
> df = sqlContext.createDataFrame(rows)
> df.show()
> which have output
> +---------------+------------------+
> | doublearray| floatarray|
> +---------------+------------------+
> |[1.0, 2.0, 3.0]|[null, null, null]|
> +---------------+------------------+
