Not quiet sure whats happening, but its not an issue with multiplication i
guess as the following query worked for me:
trades.select(trades("price")*9.5).show
+-------------+
|(price * 9.5)|
+-------------+
| 199.5|
| 228.0|
| 190.0|
| 199.5|
| 190.0|
| 256.5|
| 218.5|
| 275.5|
| 218.5|
......
......
Could it be with the precision? ccing dev list, may be you can open up a
jira for this as it seems to be a bug.
Thanks
Best Regards
