Ahmed Kamal` created SPARK-26393: ------------------------------------ Summary: Different behaviors of date_add when calling it inside expr Key: SPARK-26393 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26393 Project: Spark Issue Type: Bug Components: PySpark Affects Versions: 2.3.2 Reporter: Ahmed Kamal`
When Calling date_add from pyspark.sql.functions directly without using expr, like this : {code:java} df.withColumn("added", F.date_add(F.to_date(F.lit('1998-9-26')), F.col('days'))).toPandas(){code} It will raise Error : `TypeError: Column is not iterable` because it only taking a number not a column but when i try to use it inside an expr, like this : {code:java} df.withColumn("added", F.expr("date_add(to_date('1998-9-26'), days)")).toPandas() {code} it will work fine. Shouldn't it behave the same way ? and i thin its logical to accept a column here as well.
