I'm just learning about this new feature from the release notes. Do we have docs that explain _when_ or _why_ users would want to use table-valued functions? My first reaction, based just off of the name "table-valued function" in the context of the DataFrame API, is to wonder why we need such a feature, since with Python/Scala/etc. you can just have regular functions that return DataFrames. Isn't that the same thing? (I suspect it's probably not, but I ask this question to motivate the need for some basic docs explaining the when/why of DataFrame TVFs.) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
