Handling Column name with space in Apache Spark

To handle column names with spaces in Apache Spark, you can use backticks (`) to escape the column name. For example:

df.select(col("`Column Name with Space`")).show()

Alternatively, you can rename the column to a name without spaces using withColumnRenamed method:

df.withColumnRenamed("Column Name with Space", "ColumnNameWithoutSpace")
.select(col("ColumnNameWithoutSpace")).show()
