In the context of Spark ML, explain the process of splitting data using Spark ML and identify the key gotchas that one might encounter during this process. Provide a code snippet demonstrating the correct way to split data and explain how to handle the potential issues that may arise.

Simulated

Use the train_test_split function from the sklearn.model_selection module to split the data._

11.6%

Use the randomSplit method from the Spark DataFrame API to split the data, ensuring that the seed is set for reproducibility.

48.8%

Use the split method from the Spark DataFrame API to split the data, but be aware of the potential for data leakage.

16.3%

Use the randomSplitWithWeights method from the Spark DataFrame API to split the data, taking into account the class weights for imbalanced datasets.
