    Hello

    I am new to scala. can you please help with my requirement. I have csv file that has header.I need to skip the header when writing this file into another file with parquet format. How can i acheive this in scala using data frame. Please help

    1. NNK

      Hi Sandeep. You mean header as column names. If so, you can skip the header while reading a CSV file and write the DataFrame as parquet file.

    Hi,
    First of all thank you for examples.I’m studing spark this website, I’m using jupyter notebook and take simple turkish notes. if you let, I want to share them in my github and linkedln account. They are have your example in them.
    thank you.

      Hi Ozan UZun,

      Thanks for your reply. I appreciate you wanted to share but all examples used here are proprietary to SparkByExamples.com and copying these to Github, LinkedIn, or in any form is not acceptable.

      PS: We are already working on publishing these examples for the Jupyter notebook so that they can be used in Databricks as well. If you are interested you can contribute to sparkbyexamples github project.

      Thanks

    Thank you so much for all these wonderful PySpark resources, my PySpark learning style is more about hands on practical project first rather than in-depth features right at the start, but when it comes to data engineering it’s really hard to find compact, concise, straight to the point code snippet example with detail explanation, and this website does exactly that! Wish you all the best and hope you post more here in the future with more topics

    If you have Patreon or if there’s other way to support you with money let me know, I don’t mind paying monthly subscription to support you

    This website is just amazing. I wanted to quit my career in pyspark since i had very little knowledge in pyspark, one day apparently i visited this website and now things has changed. I enjoy working in pyspark because of this website only. for any query i directly come over here and search for the concept. The best thing about this website is it has very basic example yet powerful which helps in understanding the concept easily. Thank you for providing such content. I admire you efforts. Please keep it up.
