Sean Owen commented on SPARK-16207:
-----------------------------------

[~rcrogers] where would you document this? we could add a document in a place 
that would have helped you. However as I say, lots of things don't preserve 
order, so I don't know if it's sensible to write that everywhere.

> order guarantees for DataFrames

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-16207
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Documentation
>          Components: Spark Core
>    Affects Versions: 1.6.1
>            Reporter: Max Moroz
>            Priority: Minor

> There's no clear explanation in the documentation about what guarantees are 
> available for the preservation of order in DataFrames. Different blogs, SO 
> answers, and posts on course websites suggest different things. It would be 
> good to provide clarity on this.
> Examples of questions on which I could not find clarification:
> 1) Does groupby() preserve order?
> 2) Does take() preserve order?
> 3) Is DataFrame guaranteed to have the same order of lines as the text file 
> it was read from? (Or as the json file, etc.)
