Ian Hellstrom created SPARK-13336: ------------------------------------- Summary: Add non-numerical summaries to DataFrame.describe Key: SPARK-13336 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-13336 Project: Spark Issue Type: Improvement Components: SQL Reporter: Ian Hellstrom Priority: Minor
The DataFrame.describe method currently only returns statistics for numerical columns. It would be nice to see generic information that is non-statistical in nature yet often important to see, especially when assessing the quality of data: * MIN/MAX for any column, not just numerical ones * (approximate) DISTINCT COUNT (or percentage of all rows or sample) * (approximate) NULL COUNT (or percentage of all rows or sample) * (approximate) MODE (i.e. most common value of all rows or sample) -- 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
