Felix Cheung commented on SPARK-12232: -------------------------------------- agreed, `sqlTableToDF` would make sense. > Consider exporting read.table in R > ---------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-12232 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12232 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SparkR > Affects Versions: 1.5.2 > Reporter: Felix Cheung > Priority: Minor > > Since we have read.df, read.json, read.parquet (some in pending PRs), we have > table() and we should consider having read.table() for consistency and > R-likeness. > However, this conflicts with utils::read.table which returns a R data.frame. > It seems neither table() or read.table() is desirable in this case. > table: https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/table.html > read.table: > https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/utils/html/read.table.html -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
