What is a UDF in Pig?
Answer / Naveen Chand
A User Defined Function (UDF) in Apache Pig allows users to define custom functions that can be used within the Pig Latin language. These functions extend the built-in functionality of Pig, enabling users to apply their own logic to the data being processed. UDFs are written in Java or other languages compatible with Hadoop.
