Michael Yannakopoulos commented on SPARK-1945:
----------------------------------------------
Hi Matei and Anant,
I am new to Spark. I am currently learning the Scala programming language. I
would like to get involved in the project by contributing
to starter tasks at first and afterwards at more complicated tasks. Can you
please help me? I have a good knowledge of machine
learning algorithms and I am interested in helping in this issue.
I have already forked the Spark repository and I know how to make pull
requests. Can you please guide me through which parts
of the documentation need to be improved?
Thanks,
Michael

> Right now some of the Java tabs only say the following:
> "All of MLlib’s methods use Java-friendly types, so you can import and call
> them there the same way you do in Scala. The only caveat is that the methods
> take Scala RDD objects, while the Spark Java API uses a separate JavaRDD
> class. You can convert a Java RDD to a Scala one by calling .rdd() on your
> JavaRDD object."
> Would be nice to translate the Scala code into Java instead.
> Also, a few pages (most notably the Matrix one) don't have Java examples at
> all.
