--------------------------------------

             Summary: Add a note that 'hash x range' and 'range x hash' 
partition for Kudu tables produce the same result
                 Key: IMPALA-10457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10457
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: Docs
            Reporter: Alexey Serbin


I stumbled upon on a fact that in Impala prior to version 4 the syntax for 
{{CREATE TABLE}} doesn't allow specifying {{range x hash}} partition, the only 
acceptable syntax is {{hash x range}}, as reflected in 
[IMPALA-7686|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7686].

With knowledge on Kudu partitioning its self-obvious that 'hash x range' and 
'range x hash' should result in the same result, but it's would be great to 
explicitly document that (probably, with the reference to this page 
https://kudu.apache.org/docs/schema_design.html#hash-range-partitioning-example 
?).

Probably, the best place to add the note is: 
https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_kudu.html#ariaid-title17
