# EdgeRDD Class

abstract class EdgeRDD\[ED] extends RDD\[Edge\[ED]]

Instance constructor:

new EdgeRDD(sc: SparkContext, deps: Seq\[Dependency\[\_]])

```
abstract def innerJoin[ED2, ED3](other: EdgeRDD[ED2])(f: (VertexId, VertexId, ED, ED2) ⇒ ED3)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[ED2], arg1: ClassTag[ED3]): EdgeRDD[ED3]

Inner joins this EdgeRDD with another EdgeRDD, assuming both are partitioned using the same PartitionStrategy.

abstract def mapValues[ED2](f: (Edge[ED]) ⇒ ED2)(implicit arg0: ClassTag[ED2]): EdgeRDD[ED2]

Map the values in an edge partitioning preserving the structure but changing the values.

abstract def reverse: EdgeRDD[ED]

Reverse all the edges in this RDD
```

Example:

```
import org.apache.spark._
import org.apache.spark.graphx._
import org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD

// Create an RDD for the vertices
val users: RDD[(VertexId, (String, String))] =
  sc.parallelize(Array((3L, ("rxin", "student")), (7L, ("jgonzal", "postdoc")),
                       (5L, ("franklin", "prof")), (2L, ("istoica", "prof")),
                       (4L, ("peter", "student"))))
// Create an RDD for edges
val relationships: RDD[Edge[String]] =
  sc.parallelize(Array(Edge(3L, 7L, "collab"),    Edge(5L, 3L, "advisor"),
                       Edge(2L, 5L, "colleague"), Edge(5L, 7L, "pi"),
                       Edge(4L, 0L, "student"),   Edge(5L, 0L, "colleague")))
// Define a default user in case there are relationship with missing user
val defaultUser = ("John Doe", "Missing")

val graph = Graph(users, relationships, defaultUser)

val edges = EdgeRDD.fromEdges(relationships.map(x=>Edge(x.srcId,x.dstId,"EdgeRDD")))
edges.take(5).foreach(println)
/*
Edge(2,5,EdgeRDD)
Edge(3,7,EdgeRDD)
Edge(5,3,EdgeRDD)
Edge(4,0,EdgeRDD)
Edge(5,0,EdgeRDD)
*/
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://george-jen.gitbook.io/data-science-and-apache-spark/edgerdd-class.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
