🤔 THE QUESTION

How do we filter inventory orders exceeding a bulk wholesale threshold?

💡 WHAT IS IT?

Evaluating standard numeric comparison operators (>, <, >=, <=, !=) against Column objects.

🎯 WHAT IS IT USED FOR?

Wholesale order routing, high-value transaction fraud alerts, and inventory reorder triggers.

💻 EXAMPLE
from pyspark.sql.functions import col

df.filter(col("quantity") > 10).show()

🎯 Mission Objectives

Practice typing production-grade PySpark code for Comparison Filtering with Numeric Thresholds.

  • Apply numeric greater-than filter
  • Use col() object in predicate
  • Filter bulk order quantities
