AnyVal is the root class of all value types, which describe values
not implemented as objects in the underlying host system.
AnyVal is the root class of all value types, which describe values
not implemented as objects in the underlying host system. Value classes
are specified in Scala Language Specification, section 12.2.
The standard implementation includes nine AnyVal subtypes:
scala.Double, scala.Float, scala.Long, scala.Int, scala.Char, scala.Short, and scala.Byte are the numeric value types.
scala.Unit and scala.Boolean are the non-numeric value types.
Other groupings:
Prior to Scala 2.10, AnyVal was a sealed trait. Beginning with Scala 2.10,
however, it is possible to define a subclass of AnyVal called a user-defined value class
which is treated specially by the compiler. Properly-defined user value classes provide a way
to improve performance on user-defined types by avoiding object allocation at runtime, and by
replacing virtual method invocations with static method invocations.
User-defined value classes which avoid object allocation...
val parameter that is the underlying runtime representation.defs, but no vals, vars, or nested traitss, classes or objects.AnyVal.equals or hashCode methods.A minimal example:
class Wrapper(val underlying: Int) extends AnyVal { def foo: Wrapper = new Wrapper(underlying * 19) }
It's important to note that user-defined value classes are limited, and in some circumstances, still must allocate a value class instance at runtime. These limitations and circumstances are explained in greater detail in the Value Classes Guide as well as in SIP-15: Value Classes, the Scala Improvement Proposal.
The App trait can be used to quickly turn objects
into executable programs.
The App trait can be used to quickly turn objects
into executable programs. Here is an example:
object Main extends App { Console.println("Hello World: " + (args mkString ", ")) }
Here, object Main inherits the main method of App.
args returns the current command line arguments as an array.
It should be noted that this trait is implemented using the DelayedInit functionality, which means that fields of the object will not have been initialized before the main method has been executed.
It should also be noted that the main method should not be overridden:
the whole class body becomes the “main method”.
Future versions of this trait will no longer extend DelayedInit.

Arrays are mutable, indexed collections of values.
Arrays are mutable, indexed collections of values. Array[T] is Scala's representation
for Java's T[].
val numbers = Array(1, 2, 3, 4) val first = numbers(0) // read the first element numbers(3) = 100 // replace the 4th array element with 100 val biggerNumbers = numbers.map(_ * 2) // multiply all numbers by two
Arrays make use of two common pieces of Scala syntactic sugar, shown on lines 2 and 3 of the above
example code.
Line 2 is translated into a call to apply(Int), while line 3 is translated into a call to
update(Int, T).
Two implicit conversions exist in scala.Predef that are frequently applied to arrays: a conversion
to scala.collection.mutable.ArrayOps (shown on line 4 of the example above) and a conversion
to scala.collection.mutable.WrappedArray (a subtype of scala.collection.Seq).
Both types make available many of the standard operations found in the Scala collections API.
The conversion to ArrayOps is temporary, as all operations defined on ArrayOps return an Array,
while the conversion to WrappedArray is permanent as all operations return a WrappedArray.
The conversion to ArrayOps takes priority over the conversion to WrappedArray. For instance,
consider the following code:
val arr = Array(1, 2, 3) val arrReversed = arr.reverse val seqReversed : Seq[Int] = arr.reverse
Value arrReversed will be of type Array[Int], with an implicit conversion to ArrayOps occurring
to perform the reverse operation. The value of seqReversed, on the other hand, will be computed
by converting to WrappedArray first and invoking the variant of reverse that returns another
WrappedArray.

A marker trait that enables dynamic invocations.
A marker trait that enables dynamic invocations. Instances x of this
trait allow method invocations x.meth(args) for arbitrary method
names meth and argument lists args as well as field accesses
x.field for arbitrary field names field.
If a call is not natively supported by x (i.e. if type checking
fails), it is rewritten according to the following rules:
foo.method("blah") ~~> foo.applyDynamic("method")("blah") foo.method(x = "blah") ~~> foo.applyDynamicNamed("method")(("x", "blah")) foo.method(x = 1, 2) ~~> foo.applyDynamicNamed("method")(("x", 1), ("", 2)) foo.field ~~> foo.selectDynamic("field") foo.varia = 10 ~~> foo.updateDynamic("varia")(10) foo.arr(10) = 13 ~~> foo.selectDynamic("arr").update(10, 13) foo.arr(10) ~~> foo.applyDynamic("arr")(10)
As of Scala 2.10, defining direct or indirect subclasses of this trait
is only possible if the language feature dynamics is enabled.
Defines a finite set of values specific to the enumeration.
Defines a finite set of values specific to the enumeration. Typically these values enumerate all possible forms something can take and provide a lightweight alternative to case classes.
Each call to a Value method adds a new unique value to the enumeration.
To be accessible, these values are usually defined as val members of
the evaluation.
All values in an enumeration share a common, unique type defined as the
Value type member of the enumeration (Value selected on the stable
identifier path of the enumeration instance).

Represents optional values.
Represents optional values. Instances of Option
are either an instance of scala.Some or the object None.
The most idiomatic way to use an scala.Option instance is to treat it
as a collection or monad and use map,flatMap, filter, or
foreach:
val name: Option[String] = request getParameter "name" val upper = name map { _.trim } filter { _.length != 0 } map { _.toUpperCase } println(upper getOrElse "")
Note that this is equivalent to
val upper = for { name <- request getParameter "name" trimmed <- Some(name.trim) upper <- Some(trimmed.toUpperCase) if trimmed.length != 0 } yield upper println(upper getOrElse "")
Because of how for comprehension works, if None is returned
from request.getParameter, the entire expression results in
None
This allows for sophisticated chaining of scala.Option values without having to check for the existence of a value.
A less-idiomatic way to use scala.Option values is via pattern matching:
val nameMaybe = request getParameter "name" nameMaybe match { case Some(name) => println(name.trim.toUppercase) case None => println("No name value") }
1.1, 16/01/2007
Many of the methods in here are duplicative with those in the Traversable hierarchy, but they are duplicated for a reason: the implicit conversion tends to leave one with an Iterable in situations where one could have retained an Option.
A partial function of type PartialFunction[A, B] is a unary function
where the domain does not necessarily include all values of type A.
A partial function of type PartialFunction[A, B] is a unary function
where the domain does not necessarily include all values of type A.
The function isDefinedAt allows to test dynamically if a value is in
the domain of the function.
Even if isDefinedAt returns true for an a: A, calling apply(a) may
still throw an exception, so the following code is legal:
val f: PartialFunction[Int, Any] = { case _ => 1/0 }
The main distinction between PartialFunction and scala.Function1 is
that the user of a PartialFunction may choose to do something different
with input that is declared to be outside its domain. For example:
val sample = 1 to 10 val isEven: PartialFunction[Int, String] = { case x if x % 2 == 0 => x+" is even" } // the method collect can use isDefinedAt to select which members to collect val evenNumbers = sample collect isEven val isOdd: PartialFunction[Int, String] = { case x if x % 2 == 1 => x+" is odd" } // the method orElse allows chaining another partial function to handle // input outside the declared domain val numbers = sample map (isEven orElse isOdd)

This class provides the basic mechanism to do String Interpolation.
This class provides the basic mechanism to do String Interpolation. String Interpolation allows users to embed variable references directly in *processed* string literals. Here's an example:
val name = "James" println(s"Hello, $name") // Hello, James
Any processed string literal is rewritten as an instantiation and method call against this class. For example:
s"Hello, $name"is rewritten to be:
StringContext("Hello, ", "").s(name)
By default, this class provides the raw, s and f methods as
available interpolators.
To provide your own string interpolator, create an implicit class
which adds a method to StringContext. Here's an example:
implicit class JsonHelper(val sc: StringContext) extends AnyVal { def json(args: Any*): JSONObject = ... } val x: JSONObject = json"{ a: $a }"
Here the JsonHelper extenion class implicitly adds the json method to
StringContext which can be used for json string literals.

Unit is a subtype of scala.AnyVal.
Unit is a subtype of scala.AnyVal. There is only one value of type
Unit, (), and it is not represented by any object in the underlying
runtime system. A method with return type Unit is analogous to a Java
method which is declared void.

An annotation that designates the name of the parameter to which it is applied as deprecated.
An annotation that designates the name of the parameter to which it is applied as deprecated. Using that name in a named argument generates a deprecation warning.
For instance, evaluating the code below in the Scala interpreter
def inc(x: Int, @deprecatedName('y) n: Int): Int = x + n inc(1, y = 2)
will produce the following output:
warning: there were 1 deprecation warnings; re-run with -deprecation for details res0: Int = 3

An annotation to designate that the annotated entity should not be considered for additional compiler checks.
An annotation to designate that the annotated entity should not be considered for additional compiler checks. Specific applications include annotating the subject of a match expression to suppress exhaustiveness warnings, and annotating a type argument in a match case to suppress unchecked warnings.
Such suppression should be used with caution, without which one may encounter scala.MatchError or java.lang.ClassCastException at runtime. In most cases one can and should address the warning instead of suppressing it.
object Test extends App { // This would normally warn "match is not exhaustive" // because `None` is not covered. def f(x: Option[String]) = (x: @unchecked) match { case Some(y) => y } // This would normally warn "type pattern is unchecked" // but here will blindly cast the head element to String. def g(xs: Any) = xs match { case x: List[String @unchecked] => x.head } }

marker trait will have their initialization code rewritten as follows:

Classes and objects (but note, not traits) inheriting the DelayedInit
marker trait will have their initialization code rewritten as follows:
code becomes delayedInit(code).
Initialization code comprises all statements and all value definitions that are executed during initialization.
Example:
trait Helper extends DelayedInit { def delayedInit(body: => Unit) = { println("dummy text, printed before initialization of C") body // evaluates the initialization code of C } } class C extends Helper { println("this is the initialization code of C") } object Test extends App { val c = new C }
Should result in the following being printed:
dummy text, printed before initialization of C
this is the initialization code of C(Since version 2.11.0) DelayedInit semantics can be surprising. Support for App will continue.

The Predef object provides definitions that are accessible in all Scala
compilation units without explicit qualification.
The Predef object provides definitions that are accessible in all Scala
compilation units without explicit qualification.
Predef provides type aliases for types which are commonly used, such as the immutable collection types scala.collection.immutable.Map, scala.collection.immutable.Set, and the scala.collection.immutable.List constructors (scala.collection.immutable.:: and scala.collection.immutable.Nil).
Predef provides a number of simple functions for console I/O, such as
print, println, readLine, readInt, etc. These functions are all
aliases of the functions provided by scala.Console.
A set of assert functions are provided for use as a way to document
and dynamically check invariants in code. assert statements can be elided
at runtime by providing the command line argument -Xdisable-assertions to
the scala command.
Variants of assert intended for use with static analysis tools are also
provided: assume, require and ensuring. require and ensuring are
intended for use as a means of design-by-contract style specification
of pre- and post-conditions on functions, with the intention that these
specifications could be consumed by a static analysis tool. For instance,
def addNaturals(nats: List[Int]): Int = { require(nats forall (_ >= 0), "List contains negative numbers") nats.foldLeft(0)(_ + _) } ensuring(_ >= 0)
The declaration of addNaturals states that the list of integers passed should
only contain natural numbers (i.e. non-negative), and that the result returned
will also be natural. require is distinct from assert in that if the
condition fails, then the caller of the function is to blame rather than a
logical error having been made within addNaturals itself. ensures is a
form of assert that declares the guarantee the function is providing with
regards to it's return value.
A number of commonly applied implicit conversions are also defined here, and in the parent type scala.LowPriorityImplicits. Implicit conversions are provided for the "widening" of numeric values, for instance, converting a Short value to a Long value as required, and to add additional higher-order functions to Array values. These are described in more detail in the documentation of scala.Array.
Contains the base traits and objects needed to use and extend Scala's collection library.
Contains the base traits and objects needed to use and extend Scala's collection library.
A detailed guide for the collections library is available at http://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/collections/introduction.html.
It is convienient to treat all collections as either a scala.collection.Traversable or scala.collection.Iterable, as these traits define the vast majority of operations on a collection.
Collections can, of course, be treated as specifically as needed, and the library is designed to ensure that the methods that transform collections will return a collection of the same type:
scala> val array = Array(1,2,3,4,5,6) array: Array[Int] = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) scala> array map { _.toString } res0: Array[java.lang.String] = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) scala> val list = List(1,2,3,4,5,6) list: List[Int] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) scala> list map { _.toString } res1: List[java.lang.String] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
The most common way to create a collection is to use the companion objects as factories.
Of these, the three most common
are scala.collection.Seq, scala.collection.immutable.Set, and scala.collection.immutable.Map. Their
companion objects are all available
as type aliases the either the scala package or in scala.Predef, and can be used
like so:
scala> val seq = Seq(1,2,3,4,1) seq: Seq[Int] = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 1) scala> val set = Set(1,2,3,4,1) set: scala.collection.immutable.Set[Int] = Set(1, 2, 3, 4) scala> val map = Map(1 -> "one",2 -> "two", 3 -> "three",2 -> "too") map: scala.collection.immutable.Map[Int,java.lang.String] = Map((1,one), (2,too), (3,three))
It is also typical to use the scala.collection.immutable collections over those
in scala.collection.mutable; The types aliased in
the scala.Predef object are the immutable versions.
Also note that the collections library was carefully designed to include several implementations of each of the three basic collection types. These implementations have specific performance characteristics which are described in the guide.
The JavaConversions object provides implicit defs that will allow mostly seamless integration
between Java Collections-based APIs and the Scala collections library.
