  26. def aggregate [B] (z: B)(seqop: (B, B) ⇒ B, combop: (B, B) ⇒ B): 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 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).

    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)

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression 1.asInstanceOf[String] will throw a ClassCastException at runtime, while the expression List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]] will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) 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).

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.

    Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]] will return true. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.

    Produces a new sequence which contains all elements of this list and also all elements of a given sequence.

    Produces a new sequence which contains all elements of this list and also all elements of a given sequence. xs union ys is equivalent to xs ++ ys.

    Another way to express this is that xs union ys computes the order-presevring multi-set union of xs and ys. union is hence a counter-part of diff and intersect which also work on multi-sets.

    B

    the element type of the returned list.

    That

    the class of the returned collection. In the standard library configuration, That is always List[B] because an implicit of type CanBuildFrom[List, B, That] is defined in object List.

    that

    the sequence to add.

    bf

    an implicit value of class CanBuildFrom which determines the result class That from the current representation type Repr and the new element type B. This is usually the canBuildFrom value defined in object List.

    returns

    a new collection of type That which contains all elements of this list followed by all elements of that.
