[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-7028) Add filterNot to RDD

["Sean Owen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7028?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14504757#comment-14504757 ] 

Sean Owen commented on SPARK-7028:
----------------------------------

That seems reasonable; at the same time of course you can {{filterNot(x => f(x))}} with {{filter(x => !f(x))}} so this doesn't buy much. I understand it's so that you can write {{filterNot(f)}} rather than expand to the preceding form. That's a minor case and I suppose I'm neutral to slightly negative on whether it's even worth the small cost of another API method and tests and docs.

> The Scala collection APIs have not only `filter`, but also `filterNot` for convenience and readability. I'd suggest to add the same to RDD.
> I can submit a PR.
