[jira] [Created] (SPARK-40922) pyspark.pandas.read_csv supports reading multiple files, but that is undocumented

Stefaan Lippens created SPARK-40922:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: pyspark.pandas.read_csv supports reading multiple files, but that is undocumented
                 Key: SPARK-40922
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-40922
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: Pandas API on Spark, PySpark
    Affects Versions: 3.3.1
            Reporter: Stefaan Lippens


The {{path}} argument of {{pyspark.pandas.read_csv(path, ...)}} currently has type annotation {{str}} and is documented as
{code}
    path : str
        The path string storing the CSV file to be read.
{code}


The implementation however uses {{pyspark.sql.DataFrameReader.csv(path, ...)}} which does support multiple paths:
{code}
        path : str or list
            string, or list of strings, for input path(s),
            or RDD of Strings storing CSV rows.
{code}


Loading multiple CSV files at once is a useful feature to have and should be documented (and tested for)
