    [SPARK-32552][SQL][DOCS] Complete the documentation for Table-valued 
Function
    
    # What changes were proposed in this pull request?
    There are two types of TVF. We only documented one type. Adding the doc for 
the 2nd type.
    
    ### Why are the changes needed?
    complete Table-valued Function doc
    
    ### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?

 ### Description
 
-A table-valued function (TVF) is a function that returns a relation or a set 
of rows.
-
-### Syntax
-
-```sql
-function_name ( expression [ , ... ] ) [ table_alias ]
-```
-
-### Parameters
-
-* **expression**
-
-    Specifies a combination of one or more values, operators and SQL functions 
that results in a value.
-
-* **table_alias**
-
-    Specifies a temporary name with an optional column name list.
-
-    **Syntax:** `[ AS ] table_name [ ( column_name [ , ... ] ) ]`
+A table-valued function (TVF) is a function that returns a relation or a set 
of rows. There are two types of TVFs in Spark SQL:
+1. a TVF that can be specified in a FROM clause, e.g. range;
+2. a TVF that can be specified in SELECT/LATERAL VIEW clauses, e.g. explode.
 
 ### Supported Table-valued Functions
