In this recipe, we will learn how to create DataFrames by inferring the schema using reflection.
To execute this recipe, you need to have a working Spark 2.3 environment.
There are no other requirements.
In this example, we will first read our CSV sample data into an RDD and then create a DataFrame from it. Here's the code:
import pyspark.sql as sql
sample_data_rdd = sc.textFile('../Data/DataFrames_sample...
