cov: Compute the sample covariance between two expressions.
covar_sample: Alias for cov.
covar_pop: Computes the population covariance between two expressions.
cov: When applied to SparkDataFrame, this calculates the sample covariance of two
numerical columns of one SparkDataFrame.
The covariance of the two columns.
