Michael Armbrust created SPARK-10380: ----------------------------------------
Summary: Confusing examples in pyspark SQL docs Key: SPARK-10380 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10380 Project: Spark Issue Type: Bug Components: SQL Reporter: Michael Armbrust There’s an error in the astype() documentation, as it uses cast instead of astype. It should probably include a mention that astype is an alias for cast (and vice versa in the cast documentation): https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/pyspark.sql.html#pyspark.sql.Column.astype The same error occurs with drop_duplicates and dropDuplicates: https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/pyspark.sql.html#pyspark.sql.DataFrame.drop_duplicates The issue here is we are copying the code. According to [~davies] the easiest way is to copy the method and just add new docs. -- 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
