[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-19428) Ability to select first row of groupby

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-19428?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Koert Kuipers updated SPARK-19428:
----------------------------------

if I remember correctly window function is like a canned secondary sort
with limited functionality, meaning this gets all pushed to the reducer. so
that is great for selecting a large number but somewhat inefficient for
taking say first 10 (compared to aggregator)

You could also use a window function:
{noformat}
import org.apache.spark.sql.expressions.Window
val df = spark.range(10000).select($"id" % 100 as "a", $"id" as "b")
df.withColumn("rn",
row_number().over(Window.partitionBy($"a").orderBy($"b"))).filter($"rn"
< 10)
{noformat}

Pandas has something like this:

> It's especially handy if you can order the group as well.
