> New API: sample RDD to fixed number of items
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: SPARK-4417

> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: PySpark, Spark Core

> Sometimes, we just want to a fixed number of items randomly selected from an
> RDD, for example, before sort an RDD we need to gather a fixed number of keys
> from each partitions.
> In order to do this, we need to two pass on the RDD, get the total number,
> then calculate the right ratio for sampling. In fact, we could do this in one
> pass.
