Read CSV file with Newline character in PySpark

Apache Spark is a Big Data cluster computing framework that can run on Standalone, Hadoop, Kubernetes, Mesos clusters, or in the cloud. We can read and write data from various data sources using Spark. For example, we can use CSV (comma-separated values), and TSV (tab-separated values) files as an input source to a Spark application. […]

Relationship between Binomial and Poisson distributions

In this post, we are going to discuss the Relationship between Binomial and Poisson distributions. We know that Poisson distribution is a limit of Binomial distribution for a large n (number of trials) and small p (independent probability for each trial) values. A large number of trials n with very small probability p indicates a
