Hi Sai,
i don't sincerely figure out where you are using the RDDs (because the
split method isn't defined in them) by the way you should use the map
function instead of the foreach due the fact it is NOT idempotent and some
partitions could be recomputed executing the function multiple times.
What maybe you are searching is:
val input = sc.textFile(inputFile)
val result= input.flatMap(line => line.split("\\n").map(x =>
x.split("\\s")(2).toInt))
result.max
result.min
result.filter
??
Best,
EA
