Create a SQL table from a dataframe

A dataframe can be used to create a temporary table. A temporary table is one that will not exist after the session ends. Spark documentation also refers to this type of table as a SQL temporary view. In the documentation this is referred to as to register the dataframe as a SQL temporary view. This command is called on the dataframe itself, and creates a table if it does not already exist, replacing it with the current data from the dataframe if it does already exist.
