> Support R formula arithmetic 
> -----------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-18569
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18569
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: ML, SparkR
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
>            Reporter: Felix Cheung
>            Priority: Major
>
> I think we should support arithmetic which makes it a lot more convenient to build model. Something like
> {code}
>   log(y) ~ a + log(x)
> {code}
> And to avoid resolution confusions we should support the I() operator:
> {code}
> I
>  I(X∗Z) as is: include a new variable consisting of these variables multiplied
> {code}
> Such that this works:
> {code}
> y ~ a + I(b+c)
> {code}
> the term b+c is to be interpreted as the sum of b and c.
