    @felixcheung Thanks for your comments. I got it's not an exposed API, but I 
think to provide consistent function name is necessary especially when we want 
to expose RDD API someday. I think another solution is to add 
```getNumPartitions``` as an alias of ```numPartitions``` which will not cause 
breaking change, and we can expose ```getNumPartitions``` when we want to 
expose RDD API. Looking forward to other members comments.
