My attempts to create a dataframe of Array[Doubles], I get an error about RDD[Array[Double]] not having a toDF function:
import sqlContext.implicits._ val testvec = Array( Array(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0), Array(5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0)) val testrdd = sc.parallelize(testvec) testrdd.toDF gives <console>:29: error: value toDF is not a member of org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD[Array[Double]] testrdd.toD on the other hand, if I make the dataframe more complicated, e.g. Tuple2[String, Array[Double]], the transformation goes through: val testvec = Array( ("row 1", Array(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0)), ("row 2", Array(5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0)) ) val testrdd = sc.parallelize(testvec) testrdd.toDF gives testrdd: org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD[(String, Array[Double])] = ParallelCollectionRDD[1] at parallelize at <console>:29 res3: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = [_1: string, _2: array<double>] What's the cause of this, and how can I get around it to create a dataframe of Array[Double]? My end goal is to store that dataframe in Parquet (yes, I do want to store all the values in a single column, not individual columns) I am using Spark 1.5.2 -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/how-to-make-a-dataframe-of-Array-Doubles-tp25704.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@spark.apache.org
