>                 Key: SPARK-32038
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32038
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Optimizer, SQL
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Mithun Radhakrishnan
>            Priority: Major

> There seems to be a regression in Spark 3.0.0, with regard to how {{NaN}} values are normalized/handled in {{COUNT(DISTINCT ...)}}. Here is an illustration:
> {code:scala}
> case class Test( uid:String, score:Float)
> val POS_NAN_1 = java.lang.Float.intBitsToFloat(0x7f800001)
> val POS_NAN_2 = java.lang.Float.intBitsToFloat(0x7fffffff)
> val rows = Seq(
>  Test("mithunr",  Float.NaN),	
>  Test("mithunr",  POS_NAN_1),
>  Test("mithunr",  POS_NAN_2),
>  Test("abellina", 1.0f),
>  Test("abellina", 2.0f)
> ).toDF.createOrReplaceTempView("mytable")
> spark.sql(" select uid, count(distinct score) from mytable group by 1 order by 1 asc ").show
> {code}
> Here are the results under Spark 3.0.0:
> {code:java|title=Spark 3.0.0 (single aggregation)}
> +--------+---------------------+
> |     uid|count(DISTINCT score)|
> +--------+---------------------+
> |abellina|                    2|
> | mithunr|                    3|
> +--------+---------------------+
> {code}
> Note that the count against {{mithunr}} is {{3}}, accounting for each distinct value for {{NaN}}.
>  The right results are returned when another aggregation is added to the GBY:
> {code:scala|title=Spark 3.0.0 (multiple aggregations)}
> scala> spark.sql(" select uid, count(distinct score), max(score) from mytable group by 1 order by 1 asc ").show
> +--------+---------------------+----------+
> |     uid|count(DISTINCT score)|max(score)|
> +--------+---------------------+----------+
> |abellina|                    2|       2.0|
> | mithunr|                    1|       NaN|
> +--------+---------------------+----------+
> {code}
> Also, note that Spark 2.4.6 normalizes the {{DISTINCT}} expression correctly:
> {code:scala|title=Spark 2.4.6}
> scala> spark.sql(" select uid, count(distinct score) from mytable group by 1 order by 1 asc ").show
> +--------+---------------------+
> |     uid|count(DISTINCT score)|
> +--------+---------------------+
> |abellina|                    2|
> | mithunr|                    1|
> +--------+---------------------+
> {code}
