Matthew Farrellee updated SPARK-1701: ------------------------------------- Comment: was deleted (was: ok, i also created 2 other PRs https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2302 aims to deprecate numSlices and https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/2303 is independent, removing the use of numSlices in pyspark/tests.py) > Inconsistent naming: "slice" or "partition" > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-1701 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1701 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Documentation, Spark Core > Reporter: Daniel Darabos > Priority: Minor > Labels: starter > > Throughout the documentation and code "slice" and "partition" are used > interchangeably. (Or so it seems to me.) It would avoid some confusion for > new users to settle on one name. I think "partition" is winning, since that > is the name of the class representing the concept. > This should not be much more complicated to do than a search & replace. I can > take a stab at it, if you agree. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
