    Package structure

    The scala package contains core types like Int, Float, Array or Option which are accessible in all Scala compilation units without explicit qualification or imports.

    Notable packages include:

    Other packages exist. See the complete list on the right.

    Additional parts of the standard library are shipped as separate libraries. These include:

    • scala.reflect - Scala's reflection API (scala-reflect.jar)
    • scala.xml - XML parsing, manipulation, and serialization (scala-xml.jar)
    • scala.collection.parallel - Parallel collections (scala-parallel-collections.jar)
    • scala.util.parsing - Parser combinators (scala-parser-combinators.jar)
    • scala.swing - A convenient wrapper around Java's GUI framework called Swing (scala-swing.jar)

    Automatic imports

    Identifiers in the scala package and the scala.Predef object are always in scope by default.

    Some of these identifiers are type aliases provided as shortcuts to commonly used classes. For example, List is an alias for scala.collection.immutable.List.

    Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM, String is an alias for java.lang.String.

MurmurHash3

object MurmurHash3 extends MurmurHash3

An implementation of Austin Appleby's MurmurHash 3 algorithm (MurmurHash3_x86_32). This object contains methods that hash values of various types as well as means to construct Hashing objects.

This algorithm is designed to generate well-distributed non-cryptographic hashes. It is designed to hash data in 32 bit chunks (ints).

The mix method needs to be called at each step to update the intermediate hash value. For the last chunk to incorporate into the hash mixLast may be used instead, which is slightly faster. Finally finalizeHash needs to be called to compute the final hash value.

This is based on the earlier MurmurHash3 code by Rex Kerr, but the MurmurHash3 algorithm was since changed by its creator Austin Appleby to remedy some weaknesses and improve performance. This represents the latest and supposedly final version of the algorithm (revision 136).

  6. final def bytesHash(data: Array[Byte], seed: Int): Int

    Compute the hash of a byte array.

    Compute the hash of a byte array. Faster than arrayHash, because it hashes 4 bytes at once.

  8. final def finalizeHash(hash: Int, length: Int): Int

    Finalize a hash to incorporate the length and make sure all bits avalanche.

  13. final def mixLast(hash: Int, data: Int): Int

    May optionally be used as the last mixing step.

    May optionally be used as the last mixing step. Is a little bit faster than mix, as it does no further mixing of the resulting hash. For the last element this is not necessary as the hash is thoroughly mixed during finalization anyway.
