pyspark.sql.functions.collect_set¶
-
pyspark.sql.functions.
collect_set
(col: ColumnOrName) → pyspark.sql.column.Column¶ Aggregate function: returns a set of objects with duplicate elements eliminated.
Notes
The function is non-deterministic because the order of collected results depends on the order of the rows which may be non-deterministic after a shuffle.
Examples
>>> df2 = spark.createDataFrame([(2,), (5,), (5,)], ('age',)) >>> df2.agg(array_sort(collect_set('age')).alias('c')).collect() [Row(c=[2, 5])]
