The eq
method implements an [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_relation equivalence relation] on
non-null instances of AnyRef
:
* It is reflexive: for any non-null instance x
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(x)
returns true
.
* It is symmetric: for any non-null instances x
and y
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(y)
returns true
if and
only if y.eq(x)
returns true
.
* It is transitive: for any non-null instances x
, y
, and z
of type AnyRef
if x.eq(y)
returns true
and y.eq(z)
returns true
, then x.eq(z)
returns true
.
Additionally, the eq
method has three other properties.
* It is consistent: for any non-null instances x
and y
of type AnyRef
, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y)
consistently returns true
or consistently returns false
.
* For any non-null instance x
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(null)
and null.eq(x)
returns false
.
* null.eq(null)
returns true
.
When overriding the equals
or hashCode
methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is
consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2
), they
should be equal to each other (o1 == o2
) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode
).

result class That
from the current representation type Repr
and the new element type (A1, B)
.
a new collection of type That
containing pairs consisting of
corresponding elements of this string and that
. The length
of the returned collection is the minimum of the lengths of this string and that
.
[use case] Returns a string formed from this string and another iterable collection by combining corresponding elements in pairs.
Returns a string formed from this string and another iterable collection by combining corresponding elements in pairs. If one of the two collections is shorter than the other, placeholder elements are used to extend the shorter collection to the length of the longer.
the type of the second half of the returned pairs
The iterable providing the second half of each result pair
the element to be used to fill up the result if this string is shorter than that
.
the element to be used to fill up the result if that
is shorter than this string.
a new string containing pairs consisting of
corresponding elements of this string and that
. The length
of the returned collection is the maximum of the lengths of this string and that
.
If this string is shorter than that
, thisElem
values are used to pad the result.
If that
is shorter than this string, thatElem
values are used to pad the result.

[use case] Zips this string with its indices.
Zips this string with its indices.
A new string containing pairs consisting of all elements of this
string paired with their index. Indices start at 0
.
@example
List("a", "b", "c").zipWithIndex = List(("a", 0), ("b", 1), ("c", 2))
Zips this string with its indices.
Zips this string with its indices.
the type of the first half of the returned pairs (this is always a supertype
of the collection's element type A
).
the class of the returned collection. Where possible, That
is
the same class as the current collection class Repr
, but this
depends on the element type (A1, Int)
being admissible for that class,
which means that an implicit instance of type CanBuildFrom[Repr, (A1, Int), That]
.
is found.
A new collection of type That
containing pairs consisting of all elements of this
string paired with their index. Indices start at 0
.
This class serves as a wrapper providing
String
s with all the operations found in indexed sequences. Where needed, instances ofString
object are implicitly converted into this class.The difference between this class and
WrappedString
is that calling transformer methods such asfilter
andmap
will yield aString
object, whereas aWrappedString
will remain aWrappedString
