Concrete Value Members From scala.Proxy

def equals(that: Any): Boolean

Compares the receiver object ( this ) with the argument object ( that ) for equivalence.

Any implementation of this method should be an equivalence relation :

• It is reflexive: for any instance x of type Any , x.equals(x) should return true .
• It is symmetric: for any instances x and y of type Any , x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true .
• It is transitive: for any instances x , y , and z of type Any if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true , then x.equals(z) should return true .

If you override this method, you should verify that your implementation remains an equivalence relation. Additionally, when overriding this method it is usually necessary to override hashCode to ensure that objects which are “equal” ( o1.equals(o2) returns true ) hash to the same scala.Int. ( o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode) ).

• that
  • the object to compare against this object for equality.
• returns
  • true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.

def par: ParSeq[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.

Concrete Value Members From scala.collection.SeqLike

def combinations(n: Int): Iterator[Repr]

Iterates over combinations. A combination of length n is a subsequence of the original sequence, with the elements taken in order. Thus, "xy" and "yy" are both length-2 combinations of "xyy" , but "yx" is not. If there is more than one way to generate the same subsequence, only one will be returned.

For example, "xyyy" has three different ways to generate "xy" depending on whether the first, second, or third "y" is selected. However, since all are identical, only one will be chosen. Which of the three will be taken is an implementation detail that is not defined.

• returns
  • An Iterator which traverses the possible n-element combinations of this sequence.

def +:[B >: A, That](elem: B)(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That]): That

[use case]

A copy of the sequence with an element prepended.

Note that :-ending operators are right associative (see example). A mnemonic for +: vs. :+ is: the COLon goes on the COLlection side.

scala> val y = 2 +: x
y: List[Int] = List(2, 1)

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

This overload exists because: for the implementation of ++: we should reuse that of ++ because many collections override it with more efficient versions.

Since TraversableOnce has no ++ method, we have to implement that directly, but Traversable and down can use the overload.

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

[use case]

Concrete Value Members From Implicit scala.collection.parallel.CollectionsHaveToParArray ——————————————————————————–

def toParArray: ParArray[T]

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