trait LinearSeqLike[+A, +Repr <: LinearSeqLike[A, Repr]] extends SeqLike[A, Repr]

A template trait for linear sequences of type LinearSeq[A].

This trait just implements iterator and corresponds in terms of isEmpty, head, and tail. However, see LinearSeqOptimized for an implementation trait that overrides many more operations to make them run faster under the assumption of fast linear access with head and tail.

Linear sequences do not add any new methods to Seq, but promise efficient implementations of linear access patterns.

A

the element type of the sequence

Repr

the type of the actual sequence containing the elements.

    [use case]

    Returns a new sequence containing the elements from the left hand operand followed by the elements from the right hand operand. The element type of the sequence is the most specific superclass encompassing the element types of the two operands.

    Example:

    scala> val a = List(1)
    a: List[Int] = List(1)
    
    scala> val b = List(2)
    b: List[Int] = List(2)
    
    scala> val c = a ++ b
    c: List[Int] = List(1, 2)
    
    scala> val d = List('a')
    d: List[Char] = List(a)
    
    scala> val e = c ++ d
    e: List[AnyVal] = List(1, 2, a)
    B

    As with ++, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

    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.

    B

    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 has similar semantics, but does not require the result to be a supertype of the element type. It traverses the elements in different partitions sequentially, using seqop to update the result, and then applies combop to results from different partitions. The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions, so combop may be invoked an arbitrary number of times.

    For example, one might want to process some elements and then produce a Set. In this case, seqop would process an element and append it to the list, while combop would concatenate two lists from different partitions together. The initial value z would be an empty set.

    pc.aggregate(Set[Int]())(_ += process(_), _ ++ _)

    Another example is calculating geometric mean from a collection of doubles (one would typically require big doubles for this).

    B

    the type of accumulated results

    z

    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

Therefore the expression 1.asInstanceOf[String] will throw a ClassCastException at runtime, while the expression List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]] will not.

    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.

    Permalink

    Tests whether the argument (that) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    Tests whether the argument (that) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    The eq method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of AnyRef, and has three additional 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).

    returns

    true if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false otherwise.

    [use case]

    Builds a new collection by applying a function to all elements of this sequence and using the elements of the resulting collections.

    For example:

    def getWords(lines: Seq[String]): Seq[String] = lines flatMap (line => line split "\\W+")

    The type of the resulting collection is guided by the static type of sequence. 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]

    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.
