The date dimension has a primary key of “DataKey”. I assume this should be “DateKey”.

Page Using Delta Lake with PySpark
second paragraph of "Using Delta Lake with PySpark" |
I'm reading Delta Lake Up & Running and ran into an error when pip installing delta-spark in the "Using Delta Lake with PySpark" section in Chapter 2. Below are my steps to reproduce.
Was it the authors' intention to pip install from within the container or from a virtual environment from the host machine?
---
(default) ➜ ~ docker run -it apache/spark /bin/sh
$ pip install delta-spark

Page Page 50 Section Creating a Delta Table with SQL DDL
7th line in the section Creating a Delta Table with SQL DDL |
It is not clear how one gets to the %sql prompt shown just above the CREATE TABLE statement. Upto this point in the book, one has been working either from the PySpark prompt >>> or the Scala prompt scala>
This sudden switch is confusing and could use some clarification.

The error occurs here:
"1. We are going to MERGE INTO the YellowTaxis Delta table. Notice that we give the
table an alias of source."
The alias should be "target" as it's mentioned the following source code:
"%sql
MERGE INTO taxidb.YellowTaxis AS target
USING YellowTaxiMergeData AS source
ON target.RideId = source.RideId
[...]"
