aggregate[B](z: ⇒ B)(seqop: (B, Char) ⇒ 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
andreduce
. It is similar tofoldLeft
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 applyingseqop
, starting withz
(likefoldLeft
). Those intermediate results are then combined by usingcombop
(likefold
). The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions (even 1), socombop
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 or0
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

applyOrElse[A1 <: Int, B1 >: Char](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 toif(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 anapplyOrElse
implementation which avoids double evaluation of pattern matchers and guards. This makesapplyOrElse
the basis for the efficient implementation for many operations and scenarios, such as:- combining partial functions into
orElse
/andThen
chains does not lead to excessiveapply
/isDefinedAt
evaluation lift
andunlift
do not evaluate source functions twice on each invocationrunWith
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 overrideapplyOrElse
with custom implementation that avoids doubleisDefinedAt
evaluation. This may result in better performance and more predictable behavior w.r.t. side effects.- x

Iterates over combinations. A _combination_ of length
n
is a subsequence of the original sequence, with the elements taken in order. Thus,"xy"

are both length-2 combinations of"xyy"

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.- returns

par: ParArray[Char]
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
ormutable.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.

Identifiers in the scala package and the
scala.Predef
object are always in scope by default.Some of these identifiers are type aliases provided as shortcuts to commonly used classes. For example,
List
is an alias forscala.collection.immutable.List
.Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM,
String
is an alias forjava.lang.String
.
