> When we add new columns in a Dataset, they are added automatically at the end
> of the Dataset.
> {code:java}
> val df = sc.parallelize(Seq(1, 2, 3)).toDF
> df.printSchema
> root
> |-- value: integer (nullable = true)
> {code}
> When we add a new column:
> {code:java}
> val newDf = df.withColumn("newColumn", col("value") + 1)
> newDf.printSchema
> root
> |-- value: integer (nullable = true)
> |-- newColumn: integer (nullable = true)
> {code}
> Generally users want to add new columns either at the end or in the
> beginning, depends on use cases.
> In my case for example, we add technical columns in the beginning of a
> Dataset and we add business columns at the end.
