Jason Ferrell commented on SPARK-27837:
---------------------------------------
Is there any way to get this into an enhancement request? It doesn't seem
quite functional as part of the SQL code that I would pass a literal to every
single row of an operation. The behavior I think would be most advantageous
would be to pass an int corresponding to a column within the row so that I can
get a random value for each row, seeded by a value on that row.
> Running rand() in SQL with seed of column results in error (rand(col1))
