--------------------------------------------

             Summary: Column.endswith(None) occasionally causes NPE
                 Key: SPARK-48995
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-48995
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PySpark
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
         Environment: Tested from {{pyspark}} shell, on Apache Spark 4.0.
            Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan


This one is pretty hard to repro, since it only seems to happen occasionally.

Invoking `Column.endswith()` seems to result in an NPE, with Spark 4.0:

{code:python}
from pyspark.sql.types import *
import pyspark.sql.functions as f

schema = StructType([StructField("s", StringType(), True)])

strings = [Row("abc"), Row("bcd"), Row(None)]

df = sc.parallelize(strings).toDF(schema)

df.select( f.col('s').endswith(None) ).collect()
{code}

Here is the resulting stack trace:
{code}
py4j.protocol.Py4JJavaError: An error occurred while calling o205.endsWith.

This seems to point to {{Column::fn}}, which looks new to Spark 4.0.
