I have a piece of code which I need to convert from SAS to Spark SQL. I want to know what is the equivalent function for as that in SAS
SAS Code:
DATA NEW_TABLE;
SET
SOURCE_TABLE1
SOURCE_TABLE2
;
RUN;
I do understand that it's creating a new table by joining the existing two source tables. But not able to understand how that converts to SQL
In standard SQL syntax, that would be a UNION or UNION ALL.
create table new_table as select * from source_table1 union select * from source_table2
The above assumes that the columns in both source tables are identical.
If the columns are not identical, use union corresponding
instead (SAS SQL only).
