Hi Shajini, thank you for this doc update. I had a few observations/questions 
on the doc change and some on commit.

Impala commit messages are in general complete sentences and describe what the 
commit contains. Unfortunately, this part does not have anchor, so can not link 
directly, but at the end of the 'Fix' there is a short paragraph about the 
styling.

Commit Message:

http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/17131/1//COMMIT_MSG@7
PS1, Line 7: argument
Could you change this to "NDV parameter"?
'NDV' to be more specific and 'parameter' because the function's definition has 
parameters, these called arguments when referring to then when the function is 
called.

PS1, Line 10: hm
This line is a bit long.

File docs/topics/impala_ndv.xml:

http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/17131/1/docs/topics/impala_ndv.xml@51
PS1, Line 51:     <p> The argument <codeph>scale</codeph> must be an integer 
and can be in the range from 1 to 10
            :       and maps to a precision used by the HLL algorithm with the 
following mapping formula: </p>
            :
            :     <p><codeblock>precision = scale + 8</codeblock></p>
I think an example at the end of the page could greatly help how the scale 
parameter affects the end result of NDV.


http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/#/c/17131/1/docs/topics/impala_ndv.xml@69
PS1, Line 69:       Without the secondary argument, all the syntax and 
semantics of the NDV function are
            :       preserved. The precision, which determines the total number 
of different estimators in the HLL
            :       algorithm, will be still 10.
This looks odd in a user documentation, we should probably just share a default 
value, if my understanding is right 10 is the default.
