@holdenk Could you help take a look on the PR when you have time? Thanks. |

I'll take a look, there are some failing "slow" pandas tests, they look like they could be bad tests but if you can also take a look @jzhan-2026 that would be great! |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think the new ordering is a little screwed up, I took a little of time but not 100% sure. Tentatively my guess is making the asc_func and then applying it to the natural order column name would work better. I think it could also simplify the code a bit since the multiple different calls to .desc() / .desc_nulls_last / desc_nulls... etc.

Did a bit more of a poke, I think there might be something off in the new ordering code not just the ttests. |

What changes were proposed in this pull request?
Add
na_option,pct, andaxisparameters toSeries.rank(), andna_optionandpcttoDataFrame.rank(), to match the pandas API.na_option('keep'/'top'/'bottom'): controls howNaNvalues are rankedpct: expresses ranks as percentile fractions in(0, 1]axisonSeries.rank(): accepts0/'index'only, added for API compatibilityWhy are the changes needed?
The pandas-on-Spark implementations were missing these parameters, making it harder to migrate pandas code to Spark without modification.
DataFrame.rankwas tracked in SPARK-46167; this PR also coversSeries.rank.Does this PR introduce any user-facing change?
Yes. Two new keyword parameters on
Series.rank()andDataFrame.rank(). Defaults are unchanged so existing code is unaffected.How was this patch tested?
New test method test_rank_pct_na_option in test_compute.py and new cases in test_stat.py covering all methods, both axes, combined parameters, and invalid input errors.
