How to use matplotlib to plot pyspark sql results
For small data, you can use .select() and .collect() on the pyspark DataFrame. collect will give a python list of pyspark.sql.types.Row, which can be indexed. From there you can plot using matplotlib without Pandas, however using Pandas dataframes with df.toPandas() is probably easier.
I am new to pyspark. I want to plot the result using matplotlib, but not sure which function to use. I searched for a way to convert sql result to pandas and then use plot.
