         A scalar UDF defines a transformation: One or more `pandas.Series` -> A `pandas.Series`.
         The length of the returned `pandas.Series` must be of the same as the input `pandas.Series`.
  
         :class:`MapType`, :class:`StructType` are currently not supported as output types.

         .. note:: The length of `pandas.Series` within a scalar UDF is not that of the whole input
             column, but is the length of an internal batch used for each call to the function.
             Therefore, this can be used, for example, to ensure the length of each returned
             `pandas.Series`, and can not be used as the column length.
  
      2. GROUPED_MAP
  
         A grouped map UDF defines transformation: A `pandas.DataFrame` -> A `pandas.DataFrame`
         The returnType should be a :class:`StructType` describing the schema of the returned
         `pandas.DataFrame`. The column labels of the returned `pandas.DataFrame` must either match
         the field names in the defined returnType schema if specified as strings, or match the
         field data types by position if not strings, e.g. integer indices.
         The length of the returned `pandas.DataFrame` can be arbitrary.
  
         Grouped map UDFs are used with :meth:`pyspark.sql.GroupedData.apply`.
  
         >>> from pyspark.sql.functions import pandas_udf, PandasUDFType
         >>> df = spark.createDataFrame(
         ...     [(1, 1.0), (1, 2.0), (2, 3.0), (2, 5.0), (2, 10.0)],

         ... def normalize(pdf):
         ...     v = pdf.v
         ...     return pdf.assign(v=(v - v.mean()) / v.std())
         >>> df.groupby("id").apply(normalize).show()  # doctest: +SKIP
         +---+-------------------+

         +---+-------------------+
  
         Alternatively, the user can define a function that takes two arguments.
         In this case, the grouping key(s) will be passed as the first argument and the data will
         be passed as the second argument. The grouping key(s) will be passed as a tuple of numpy
         data types, e.g., `numpy.int32` and `numpy.float64`. The data will still be passed in
         as a `pandas.DataFrame` containing all columns from the original Spark DataFrame.
         This is useful when the user does not want to hardcode grouping key(s) in the function.

         |  2|          2| 3.0|
         +---+-----------+----+
  
         .. note:: If returning a new `pandas.DataFrame` constructed with a dictionary, it is
             recommended to explicitly index the columns by name to ensure the positions are correct,
             or alternatively use an `OrderedDict`.
             For example, `pd.DataFrame({'id': ids, 'a': data}, columns=['id', 'a'])` or
             `pd.DataFrame(OrderedDict([('id', ids), ('a', data)]))`.
  
         .. seealso:: :meth:`pyspark.sql.GroupedData.apply`
  
      3. GROUPED_AGG
  
         A grouped aggregate UDF defines a transformation: One or more `pandas.Series` -> A scalar
         The `returnType` should be a primitive data type, e.g., :class:`DoubleType`.
         The returned scalar can be either a python primitive type, e.g., `int` or `float`
         or a numpy data type, e.g., `numpy.int64` or `numpy.float64`.
  
         :class:`MapType` and :class:`StructType` are currently not supported as output types.
  
         Group aggregate UDFs are used with :meth:`pyspark.sql.GroupedData.agg` and
         :class:`pyspark.sql.Window`
  
         This example shows using grouped aggregated UDFs with groupby:
  
         >>> from pyspark.sql.functions import pandas_udf, PandasUDFType
         >>> df = spark.createDataFrame(
         ...     [(1, 1.0), (1, 2.0), (2, 3.0), (2, 5.0), (2, 10.0)],
         ...     ("id", "v"))
         >>> @pandas_udf("double", PandasUDFType.GROUPED_AGG)  # doctest: +SKIP
         ... def mean_udf(v):
         ...     return v.mean()
         >>> df.groupby("id").agg(mean_udf(df['v'])).show()  # doctest: +SKIP
         +---+-----------+
         | id|mean_udf(v)|
         +---+-----------+
         |  1|        1.5|
         |  2|        6.0|
         +---+-----------+
  
         This example shows using grouped aggregated UDFs as window functions.
  
         >>> from pyspark.sql.functions import pandas_udf, PandasUDFType
         >>> from pyspark.sql import Window
         >>> df = spark.createDataFrame(
         ...     [(1, 1.0), (1, 2.0), (2, 3.0), (2, 5.0), (2, 10.0)],
         ...     ("id", "v"))
         >>> @pandas_udf("double", PandasUDFType.GROUPED_AGG)  # doctest: +SKIP
         ... def mean_udf(v):
         ...     return v.mean()
         >>> w = (Window.partitionBy('id')
         ...            .orderBy('v')
         ...            .rowsBetween(-1, 0))
         >>> df.withColumn('mean_v', mean_udf(df['v']).over(w)).show()  # doctest: +SKIP
         +---+----+------+
         | id|   v|mean_v|
         +---+----+------+
         |  1| 1.0|   1.0|
         |  1| 2.0|   1.5|
         |  2| 3.0|   3.0|
         |  2| 5.0|   4.0|
         |  2|10.0|   7.5|
         +---+----+------+
  
         .. note:: For performance reasons, the input series to window functions are not copied.
              Therefore, mutating the input series is not allowed and will cause incorrect results.
              For the same reason, users should also not rely on the index of the input series.
  
         .. seealso:: :meth:`pyspark.sql.GroupedData.agg` and :class:`pyspark.sql.Window`
  
      .. note:: The user-defined functions are considered deterministic by default. Due to
          optimization, duplicate invocations may be eliminated or the function may even be invoked
          more times than it is present in the query. If your function is not deterministic, call
          `asNondeterministic` on the user defined function. E.g.:
  
      >>> @pandas_udf('double', PandasUDFType.SCALAR)  # doctest: +SKIP
      ... def random(v):
      ...     import numpy as np
      ...     import pandas as pd
      ...     return pd.Series(np.random.randn(len(v))
      >>> random = random.asNondeterministic()  # doctest: +SKIP
  
      .. note:: The user-defined functions do not support conditional expressions or short circuiting
          in boolean expressions and it ends up with being executed all internally. If the functions
          can fail on special rows, the workaround is to incorporate the condition into the functions.
  
      .. note:: The user-defined functions do not take keyword arguments on the calling side.
  
      .. note:: The data type of returned `pandas.Series` from the user-defined functions should be
          matched with defined returnType (see :meth:`types.to_arrow_type` and
          :meth:`types.from_arrow_type`). When there is mismatch between them, Spark might do
          conversion on returned data. The conversion is not guaranteed to be correct and results
          should be checked for accuracy by users.
