Suggestion for improvement use koalas instead of databricks.koalas
See original GitHub issueThe current naming / import of the package feels inconsistent and not what I expect as a Python developer - especially if we’re trying to reduce the barrier of entry from Pandas to Spark. It’s not a big deal, but changing this could reduce friction.
I’d recommend being consistent (and shadowing Pandas) for both the pip install and import statements:
Pandas style:
pip install pandas
import pandas as pd
Current Koalas style:
pip install koalas
import databricks.koalas as ks
Recommended Koalas style:
pip install koalas
import koalas as ks

koalasinstead ofdatabricks.koalas, mostly because other packages (pyspark,numpy,pandas, etc) looks that wayactually I personally like this way too but I think it’s not a big deal.
