Write a Spark application

Scala

To avoid Scala compatibility issues, we suggest you use Spark dependencies for the correct Scala version when you compile a Spark application for an Amazon EMR cluster. The Scala version you should use depends on the version of Spark installed on your cluster. For example, Amazon EMR release 5.30.1 uses Spark 2.4.5, which is built with Scala 2.11. If your cluster uses Amazon EMR release 5.30.1, use Spark dependencies for Scala 2.11. For more information about the Scala versions used by Spark, see the Apache Spark documentation.

  def main(args: Array[String]) {
    val conf = new SparkConf().setAppName("Spark Pi")
    val spark = new SparkContext(conf)
    val slices = if (args.length > 0) args(0).toInt else 2
    val n = math.min(100000L * slices, Int.MaxValue).toInt // avoid overflow
    val count = spark.parallelize(1 until n, slices).map { i =>
      val x = random * 2 - 1
      val y = random * 2 - 1
      if (x*x + y*y < 1) 1 else 0
    }.reduce(_ + _)
    println("Pi is roughly " + 4.0 * count / n)
    spark.stop()
  }
}
