Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.
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 collection 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 })
the type of accumulated results
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

Tests whether this collection or iterator is known to have a finite size.
Tests whether this collection or iterator is known to have a finite size.
All strict collections are known to have finite size. For a non-strict
collection such as Stream, the predicate returns true if all
elements have been computed. It returns false if the stream is
not yet evaluated to the end. Non-empty Iterators usually return
false even if they were created from a collection with a known
finite size.
Note: many collection methods will not work on collections of infinite sizes.
The typical failure mode is an infinite loop. These methods always attempt a
traversal without checking first that hasDefiniteSize returns true.
However, checking hasDefiniteSize can provide an assurance that size is
well-defined and non-termination is not a concern.

The type of the resulting collection is guided by the static type of collection. 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)

Returns a parallel implementation of this collection.
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.

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

Produces a new sequence which contains all elements of this collection and also all elements of

union is hence a counter-part of diff and intersect which also work on multi-sets.
