> UDF translate(input, from, to) doesn't accept any CHAR or VARCHAR typed
> argument.
> {code}
> hive> desc vc;
> c char(5) None
> vc varchar(7) None
> s string None
> hive> select translate("my input", c, "ll") from vc;
> FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10016]: Line 1:29 Argument type mismatch
> 'c': A string argument was expected but an argument of type char(5) was given.
> {code}
> However, if the type is String, then the UDF works fine.
