Pandas APIs on Spark understands the type hints specified in the return type and converts it as a Spark schema for pandas UDFs used internally. The way of type hinting has been evolved over the time. In this chapter, it covers the recommended way and the supported ways in details. .. note:: - The variadic generics support is experimental and unstable in Koalas. + The variadic generics support is experimental and unstable in pandas APIs on Spark. The way of typing can change between minor releases without a warning. See also `PEP 646 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0646/>`_ for variadic generics in Python. -Koalas DataFrame and Pandas DataFrame -------------------------------------- +Pandas APIs on Spark DataFrame and Pandas DataFrame Review comment: ```suggestion Pandas-on-Spark DataFrame and Pandas DataFrame ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
