Sean Owen commented on SPARK-4992:
----------------------------------
Seems reasonable to me, to avoid anything that could be a library or keyword,
although I know just a little Python. (Does it actually fail?) What do you
suggest, just "textFile" or something?
Usually you make a pull request to suggest an edit, but the site is exceptional
in that it is hosted from source in Apache SVN, at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spark/site You can make a patch and post it
here, or I could do it pretty easily since I've done it before (hence I butted
in without knowing much Python)
> Prominent Python example has bad, beginner style

> Key: SPARK-4992
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4992
> Project: Spark

> Original Estimate: 5m
> Remaining Estimate: 5m

> In the main webpage http://spark.apache.org/, the Python example uses a
> variable named "file": this is a well-known bad practice (because file is the
> name of a built-in class).
> Such a prominently visible example should show a better mastery of Python, if
> Spark is to give confidence in the quality of its Python API.
