       .. note:: The length of `pandas.Series` within a scalar UDF is not that of the whole input
           column, but is the length of an internal batch used for each call to the function.
           Therefore, this can be used, for example, to ensure the length of each returned
           `pandas.Series`, and can not be used as the column length.

       The returnType should be a :class:`StructType` describing the schema of the returned
       `pandas.DataFrame`.
