Len Frodgers updated SPARK-19732:
---------------------------------
Description:
In PySpark, the fillna function of DataFrame inadvertently casts bools to ints,
so fillna cannot be used to fill True/False.
e.g. `spark.createDataFrame([Row(a=True),Row(a=None)]).fillna(True).collect()`
yields
`[Row(a=True), Row(a=None)]`
It should be a=True for the second Row
The cause is this bit of code:
{code}
if isinstance(value, (int, long)):
value = float(value)
{code}
There needs to be a separate check for isinstance(bool), since in python, bools
are ints too
