Printing table with variables in pyspark

[Nikhil Utane <ni...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

The official documentation shows example of printing static values in a
table.
I have a need to print variable values inside table in pyspark.
How to achieve that?

%pyspark
str="Col1\tCol2"
print("%table %s" % str)

ValueError: unsupported format character 't' (0x74) at index 1

-Thanks & Regards
Nikhil

Funny thing happened actually.
I had tried same way as above but removed additional content for simplicity.
I made the mistake of naming my variable as str (Duhh). This then overrode
the standard str() function and because of that whatever I tried failed.

After restarting the interpreter it all worked fine.

Thanks for your help.

This is not zeppelin issue, it is due to your python code, use following
code

str="Col1\tCol2"
print("%table " + str)
