ArrayBuffer

Companion object ArrayBuffer

class ArrayBuffer[A] extends AbstractBuffer[A] with Buffer[A] with GenericTraversableTemplate[A, ArrayBuffer] with BufferLike[A, ArrayBuffer[A]] with IndexedSeqOptimized[A, ArrayBuffer[A]] with Builder[A, ArrayBuffer[A]] with ResizableArray[A] with CustomParallelizable[A, ParArray[A]] with Serializable

An implementation of the Buffer class using an array to represent the assembled sequence internally. Append, update and random access take constant time (amortized time). Prepends and removes are linear in the buffer size.

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

def aggregate[B](z: ⇒ B)(seqop: (B, A) ⇒ 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 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 traversable 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 })
```
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
seqop
an operator used to accumulate results within a partition
combop
an associative operator used to combine results from different partitions

def applyOrElse[A1 <: Int, B1 >: A](x: A1, default: (A1) ⇒ B1): B1
Applies this partial function to the given argument when it is contained in the function domain.
Applies this partial function to the given argument when it is contained in the function domain. Applies fallback function where this partial function is not defined.
Note that expression pf.applyOrElse(x, default) is equivalent to
```
if(pf isDefinedAt x) pf(x) else default(x)
```
except that applyOrElse method can be implemented more efficiently. For all partial function literals the compiler generates an applyOrElse implementation which avoids double evaluation of pattern matchers and guards. This makes applyOrElse the basis for the efficient implementation for many operations and scenarios, such as:
- combining partial functions into orElse/andThen chains does not lead to excessive apply/isDefinedAt evaluation
- lift and unlift do not evaluate source functions twice on each invocation
- runWith allows efficient imperative-style combining of partial functions with conditionally applied actions
For non-literal partial function classes with nontrivial isDefinedAt method it is recommended to override applyOrElse with custom implementation that avoids double isDefinedAt evaluation. This may result in better performance and more predictable behavior w.r.t. side effects.

final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean
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).

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

Builds a new collection by applying a function to all elements of this array buffer 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 array buffer. 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]

def hasDefiniteSize: Boolean
Tests whether this traversable collection is known to have a finite size.
Tests whether this traversable collection 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.

true if this collection is known to have finite size, false otherwise.

def par: ParArray[A]
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.
