Jihong MA commented on SPARK-11720:
-----------------------------------
Also, for mean, we treat Decimal differently vs. other numeric type, all other
numeric type all converted to Double, for Decimal type, we continue to keep its
type but increase its p/s to avoid precison loss. so for types that converted
to Double, we can return Double.NaN, for decimal type, we can't return a double
value but still null?
> Return Double.NaN instead of null for Mean and Average when count = 0

> change the default behavior of mean in case of count = 0 from null to
> Double.NaN, to make it inline with all other univariate stats function.
