How to find count of Null and Nan values for each

问题:

import numpy as np

df = spark.createDataFrame(
    [(1, 1, None), (1, 2, float(5)), (1, 3, np.nan), (1, 4, None), (1, 5, float(10)), (1, 6, float('nan')), (1, 6, float('nan'))],
    ('session', "timestamp1", "id2"))

Expected output

dataframe with count of nan/null for each column

Note: The previous questions I found in stack overflow only checks for null & not nan. Thats why i have created a new question.

I know i can use isnull() function in spark to find number of Null values in Spark column but how to find Nan values in Spark dataframe?

回答1:

You can use method shown here and replace isNull with isnan:

from pyspark.sql.functions import isnan, when, count, col

df.select([count(when(isnan(c), c)).alias(c) for c in df.columns]).show()
+-------+----------+---+
|session|timestamp1|id2|
+-------+----------+---+
|      0|         0|  3|
+-------+----------+---+

or

df.select([count(when(isnan(c) | col(c).isNull(), c)).alias(c) for c in df.columns]).show()
+-------+----------+---+
|session|timestamp1|id2|
+-------+----------+---+
|      0|         0|  5|
+-------+----------+---+

You can create an UDF to ckeck both null and NaN and return the boolean value to filter

The code is scala code hope you can convert to python.

val isNaN = udf((value : Float) => {
   if (value.equals(Float.NaN) || value == null) true else false }) 

val result = data.filter(isNaN(data("column2"))).count()

Hope this helps !
