    Package structure

    The scala package contains core types like Int, Float, Array or Option which are accessible in all Scala compilation units without explicit qualification or imports.

    Notable packages include:

    Other packages exist. See the complete list on the right.

    Additional parts of the standard library are shipped as separate libraries. These include:

    • scala.reflect - Scala's reflection API (scala-reflect.jar)
    • scala.xml - XML parsing, manipulation, and serialization (scala-xml.jar)
    • scala.collection.parallel - Parallel collections (scala-parallel-collections.jar)
    • scala.util.parsing - Parser combinators (scala-parser-combinators.jar)
    • scala.swing - A convenient wrapper around Java's GUI framework called Swing (scala-swing.jar)

    Automatic imports

    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 for scala.collection.immutable.List.

    Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM, String is an alias for java.lang.String.

    This object defines inner classes that describe regex matches and helper objects.

object Groups

An extractor object that yields the groups in the match. Using this extractor rather than the original Regex ensures that the match is not recomputed.

import scala.util.matching.Regex.Groups

val date = """(\d\d\d\d)-(\d\d)-(\d\d)""".r
val text = "The doc spree happened on 2011-07-15."
val day = date replaceAllIn(text, _ match { case Groups(_, month, day) => s"$month/$day" })
