Model evaluation using MSE

After generating the predicted ratings from the test data using ALS model, in this final part of the exercise, you'll prepare the data for calculating Mean Square Error (MSE) of the model. The MSE is the average value of (original rating – predicted rating)**2 for all users and indicates the absolute fit of the model to the data.

To do this, first, you'll organize both the ratings_final and predictions RDDs to make a tuple of ((user, product), rating)). In both RDDs the mapping is:

0: user
1: product
2: rating

Then you'll join transformed RDDs and finally apply a squared difference function along with mean() to get the MSE.

Remember, you have a SparkContext sc available in your workspace. Also, ratings_final and predictions RDD are already available in your workspace.
