Class InputSampler.IntervalSampler<K,V>

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.partition.InputSampler.IntervalSampler<K,V>

All Implemented Interfaces:
  InputSampler.Sampler<K,V>

Enclosing class:
  InputSampler<K,V>

    public static class InputSampler.IntervalSampler<K,V>

extends Object
implements InputSampler.Sampler<K,V>

Sample from s splits at regular intervals. Useful for sorted data.

Constructor Summary
`InputSampler.IntervalSampler(double freq)` Create a new IntervalSampler sampling all splits.
`InputSampler.IntervalSampler(double freq, int maxSplitsSampled)` Create a new IntervalSampler.

Method Summary
`K[]` `getSample(InputFormat<K,V> inf, Job job)` For each split sampled, emit when the ratio of the number of records retained to the total record count is less than the specified frequency.

Constructor Detail

### InputSampler.IntervalSampler

    public InputSampler.IntervalSampler(double freq)

  Create a new IntervalSampler sampling all splits.

  Parameters:
    `freq` - The frequency with which records will be emitted.

### InputSampler.IntervalSampler

    public InputSampler.IntervalSampler(double freq,
                                        int maxSplitsSampled)

  Create a new IntervalSampler.

  Parameters:
    `freq` - The frequency with which records will be emitted.
    `maxSplitsSampled` - The maximum number of splits to examine.
