| first {SparkR} | R Documentation |
Return the first row of a SparkDataFrame
Aggregate function: returns the first value in a group.
first(x, ...) ## S4 method for signature 'SparkDataFrame' first(x) ## S4 method for signature 'characterOrColumn' first(x, na.rm = FALSE)
x |
a SparkDataFrame or a column used in aggregation function. |
... |
further arguments to be passed to or from other methods. |
na.rm |
a logical value indicating whether NA values should be stripped before the computation proceeds. |
The function by default returns the first values it sees. It will return the first non-missing value it sees when na.rm is set to true. If all values are missing, then NA is returned.
