-SparkR allows the fitting of generalized linear models over DataFrames using the [glm()](api/R/glm.html) function. Under the hood, SparkR uses MLlib to train a model of the specified family. Currently the gaussian and binomial families are supported. We support a subset of the available R formula operators for model fitting, including '~', '.', ':', '+', and '-'.

+# R Function Name Conflicts
+
+When loading and attaching a new package in R, it is possible to have a name [conflict](https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/library.html), where a
+function is masking another function.
+
+The following functions are masked by the SparkR package:
+
+<table class="table">
+ <tr><th>Masked function</th><th>How to Access</th></tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>cov</code> in <code>package:stats</code></td>
+ <td><code><pre>stats::cov(x, y = NULL, use = "everything",
+ method = c("pearson", "kendall", "spearman"))</pre></code></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>filter</code> in <code>package:stats</code></td>
+ <td><code><pre>stats::filter(x, filter, method = c("convolution", "recursive"),
+ sides = 2, circular = FALSE, init)</pre></code></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>sample</code> in <code>package:base</code></td>
+ <td><code>base::sample(x, size, replace = FALSE, prob = NULL)</code></td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td><code>table</code> in <code>package:base</code></td>
+ <td><code><pre>base::table(...,
+ exclude = if (useNA == "no") c(NA, NaN),
+ useNA = c("no", "ifany", "always"),
+ dnn = list.names(...), deparse.level = 1)</pre></code></td>
+ </tr>
