Hi all,
I am working on PySpark (*Python 3.6 and Spark 2.1.1*) and trying to fetch
data from an excel file using
*spark.read.format("com.crealytics.spark.excel")*, but it is inferring
double for a date type column.
The detailed description is given here (the question I posted) -
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45713699/inferschema-using-spark-read-formatcom-crealytics-spark-excel-is-inferring-d
Found it is a probable bug with the crealytics excel read package.
Can somebody help me with a workaround for this?
Thanks,
Aakash.
