pyspark.sql.functions.ntile

pyspark.sql.functions.ntile(n: int) → pyspark.sql.column.Column[source]

Window function: returns the ntile group id (from 1 to n inclusive) in an ordered window partition. For example, if n is 4, the first quarter of the rows will get value 1, the second quarter will get 2, the third quarter will get 3, and the last quarter will get 4.
