What does 'col (with tick) expression mean in Spark SQL?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
The following syntax:
def func0(x: Int => Int, y: Int)(in: DataFrame): DataFrame = {
in.filter('col > x(y))
}
Cannot place the 'col. "col" does not work, whereas "col" does work in the following code fine:
def func1(x: Int)(in: DataFrame): DataFrame = {
in.selectExpr("col", s"col + $x as col1")
}
The 'col
signifies?
The dataframe example only has one col, col
, what if 2 or 3 cols? Clearly missing something here. Something tells me it is very simple.

'col
is a way to refer to a column named col
, same as $"col"
or col("col")
It's a bit confusing to have a column named col
.
It's working for me in spark 2.3
EXAMPLE WITH A COLUMN NAMED NUMBER
df.show
+------+------+
|letter|number|
+------+------+
| a| 1|
| b| 2|
+------+------+
df.filter('number >1).show
+------+------+
|letter|number|
+------+------+
| b| 2|
+------+------+
Same with the other expressions
import spark.implicits._
df.filter($"number" >1).show
import org.apache.spark.sql.functions
df.filter(col("number") >1).show
