Value Members From scala.collection.Parallelizable

def par: ParSet[A]

Returns a parallel implementation of this collection.

For most collection types, this method creates a new parallel collection by copying all the elements. For these collection, par takes linear time. Mutable collections in this category do not produce a mutable parallel collection that has the same underlying dataset, so changes in one collection will not be reflected in the other one.

Specific collections (e.g. ParArray or mutable.ParHashMap ) override this default behaviour by creating a parallel collection which shares the same underlying dataset. For these collections, par takes constant or sublinear time.

All parallel collections return a reference to themselves.

def ++:[B >: A, That](that: collection.Traversable[B])(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[ListSet[A], B, That]): That

As with ++ , returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

It differs from ++ in that the right operand determines the type of the resulting collection rather than the left one. Mnemonic: the COLon is on the side of the new COLlection type.

Example:

scala> val x = List(1)
x: List[Int] = List(1)

scala> val y = LinkedList(2)
y: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(2)

scala> val z = x ++: y
z: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1, 2)

def flatMap[B, That](f: (A) ⇒ GenTraversableOnce[B])(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[ListSet[A], B, That]): That

[use case]

Builds a new collection by applying a function to all elements of this immutable list set and using the elements of the resulting collections.

For example:

def getWords(lines: Seq[String]): Seq[String] = lines flatMap (line => line split "\\W+")

The type of the resulting collection is guided by the static type of immutable list set. This might cause unexpected results sometimes. For example:

// lettersOf will return a Seq[Char] of likely repeated letters, instead of a Set
def lettersOf(words: Seq[String]) = words flatMap (word => word.toSet)

// lettersOf will return a Set[Char], not a Seq
def lettersOf(words: Seq[String]) = words.toSet flatMap (word => word.toSeq)

// xs will be an Iterable[Int]
val xs = Map("a" -> List(11,111), "b" -> List(22,222)).flatMap(_._2)

// ys will be a Map[Int, Int]
val ys = Map("a" -> List(1 -> 11,1 -> 111), "b" -> List(2 -> 22,2 -> 222)).flatMap(_._2)

def aggregate[B](z: ⇒ B)(seqop: (B, A) ⇒ B, combop: (B, B) ⇒ B): B

Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.

This is a more general form of fold and reduce . It is similar to foldLeft in that it doesn’t require the result to be a supertype of the element type. In addition, it allows parallel collections to be processed in chunks, and then combines the intermediate results.

aggregate splits the traversable or iterator into partitions and processes each partition by sequentially applying seqop , starting with z (like foldLeft ). Those intermediate results are then combined by using combop (like fold ). The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions (even 1), so combop may be invoked an arbitrary number of times (even 0).

As an example, consider summing up the integer values of a list of chars. The initial value for the sum is 0. First, seqop transforms each input character to an Int and adds it to the sum (of the partition). Then, combop just needs to sum up the intermediate results of the partitions:

List('a', 'b', 'c').aggregate(0)({ (sum, ch) => sum + ch.toInt }, { (p1, p2) => p1 + p2 })

• B
  • the type of accumulated results
• z
  • the initial value for the accumulated result of the partition - this will typically be the neutral element for the seqop operator (e.g. Nil for list concatenation or 0 for summation) and may be evaluated more than once

Transposes this collection of traversable collections into a collection of collections.

The resulting collection’s type will be guided by the static type of collection. For example:

           Set(4, 5, 6)).transpose
// xs == List(
//         List(1, 4),

val ys = Vector(

// ys == Vector(
//         Vector(1, 4),

def -(elem1: A, elem2: A, elems: A*): ListSet[A]

Creates a new collection from this collection with some elements removed.

This method takes two or more elements to be removed. Another overloaded variant of this method handles the case where a single element is removed.

• elem1
  • the first element to remove.
• elem2
  • the second element to remove.
• elems
  • the remaining elements to remove.
• returns
  • a new collection that contains all elements of the current collection except one less occurrence of each of the given elements.

def --(xs: GenTraversableOnce[A]): ListSet[A]

Creates a new collection from this collection by removing all elements of another collection.

def +(elem: A): ListSet[A]

This method creates a new set with an additional element.

• Definition Classes
  • ListSet → SetLike → GenSetLike

(defined at scala.collection.immutable.ListSet)

def ++(xs: GenTraversableOnce[A]): ListSet[A]

If we are bulk adding elements and desire a runtime measured in sub-interstellar time units, we better find a way to avoid traversing the collection on each element. That’s what the custom builder does, so we take the easy way out and add ourselves and the argument to a new builder.

• returns
  • a new immutable list set with the given elements added, omitting duplicates.
• Definition Classes
  • ListSet → SetLike

(defined at scala.collection.immutable.ListSet)

def -(elem: A): ListSet[A]

- can be used to remove a single element.

• elem
  • the element to be removed
• returns
  • a new set that contains all elements of this set but that does not contain elem .
• Definition Classes

(defined at scala.collection.immutable.ListSet)

def toSet[B >: A]: Set[B]

Returns this immutable list set as an immutable set, perhaps accepting a wider range of elements. Since it already is an immutable set, it will only be rebuilt if the underlying structure cannot be expanded to include arbitrary element types. For instance, BitSet and SortedSet will be rebuilt, as they require Int and sortable elements respectively.

When in doubt, the set will be rebuilt. Rebuilt sets never need to be rebuilt again.

• returns
  • a set containing all elements of this immutable list set.

  • protected
• Definition Classes

(defined at scala.collection.immutable.Set)

def seq: Set[A]

A version of this collection with all of the operations implemented sequentially (i.e., in a single-threaded manner).

This method returns a reference to this collection. In parallel collections, it is redefined to return a sequential implementation of this collection. In both cases, it has O(1) complexity.

• returns
  • a sequential view of the collection.

• Implicit information
  • This member is added by an implicit conversion from ListSet [A] to CollectionsHaveToParArray [ListSet [A], T] performed by method CollectionsHaveToParArray in scala.collection.parallel. This conversion will take place only if an implicit value of type (ListSet [A]) ⇒ GenTraversableOnce [T] is in scope.
