>             Project: Apache MADlib
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Module: Utilities

> There is some unexpected behavior when vector column to be split contains different numbers of elements in the vectors. E.g.
> Input table:
> select * from test order by id;
>  id | t 
>  ----+---------
>  1 | \{a,b}
>  2 | \{c,d}
>  3 | \{e,f}
>  4 | \{g,h,i}
>  5 | \{j}
>  (5 rows)
>  
> select madlib.vec2cols('test','test_out_5','t',array['c1','c2','c3'],'id');
>  ERROR: plpy.Error: vec2cols: Mismatch between size of vector_col and number of cols in feature_names.
>  CONTEXT: Traceback (most recent call last):
>  PL/Python function "vec2cols", line 23, in <module>
>  return vec2cols_obj.vec2cols(**globals())
>  PL/Python function "vec2cols", line 149, in vec2cols
>  PL/Python function "vec2cols", line 112, in get_names_for_split_output_cols
>  PL/Python function "vec2cols", line 77, in _assert
>  PL/Python function "vec2cols"
>  
> select madlib.vec2cols('test','test_out_5','t',array['c1','c2'],'id');
>  vec2cols 
>  ----------
> (1 row)
> select * from test_out_5 order by id;
>  id | c1 | c2 
>  ----++--------
>  1 | a | b
>  2 | c | d
>  3 | e | f
>  4 | g | h
>  5 | j | 
>  (5 rows)
>  
>  
> select madlib.vec2cols('test','test_out_6','t',array['c1'],'id');
> ERROR: plpy.Error: vec2cols: Mismatch between size of vector_col and number of cols in feature_names.

> --- Update-----
> There are a couple of decisions to be made regarding supporting arrays of different lengths:
> -If we choose the array with maximal length in the vector_col, what do we do if the user's passed-in feature_names does not have the same number of elements?
> -What are the performance issues with looking through our vector_col for the array with maximal length?
> -How will we handle default feature names: will we create a feature name for every element of the longest array entry?
