Vineet Garg commented on HIVE-17519:
------------------------------------
I agree. It is pain to read 'desc formatted' output.
> Transpose column stats display

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Zoltan Haindrich
>
> currently {{describe formatted table1 insert_num}} shows the column
> informations in a table like format...which is very hard to read - because
> there are to many columns
> {code}
> # col_name data_type min
> max num_nulls distinct_count
> avg_col_len max_col_len num_trues
> num_falses comment bitVector
>
>
> insert_num int
>
>
> from deserializer
> {code}
> I think it would be better to show the same information like this:
> {code}
> col_name insert_num
> data_type int
> min
> max
> num_nulls
> distinct_count
> avg_col_len
> max_col_len
> num_trues
> num_falses
> comment from deserializer
> bitVector
> {code}
