final def ##(): Int

Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null. For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent with value equality: if two value type instances compare as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each of them. For null returns a hashcode where null.hashCode throws a NullPointerException.

def ++[B >: Nothing, That](that: GenTraversableOnce[B])(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[Stream[Nothing], B, That]): That

Create a new stream which contains all elements of this stream followed by all elements of Traversable that.

B

The element type of the returned collection.That

That

the class of the returned collection. Where possible, That is the same class as the current collection class Repr, but this depends on the element type B being admissible for that class, which means that an implicit instance of type CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That] is found.

that

The scala.collection.GenTraversableOnce to be concatenated to this Stream.

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.

returns

A new collection containing the result of concatenating this with that.

Note

It's subtle why this works. We know that if the target type of the scala.collection.mutable.Builder That is either a Stream, or one of its supertypes, or undefined, then StreamBuilder will be chosen for the implicit. We recognize that fact and optimize to get more laziness.

,

This method doesn't cause the Stream to be fully realized but it should be noted that using the ++ operator from another collection type could cause infinite realization of a Stream. For example, referring to the definition of fibs in the preamble, the following would never return: List(BigInt(12)) ++ fibs.

def ++:[B >: Nothing, That](that: collection.Traversable[B])(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[Stream[Nothing], B, That]): That

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

the element type of the returned collection.

That

the class of the returned collection. Where possible, That is the same class as the current collection class Repr, but this depends on the element type B being admissible for that class, which means that an implicit instance of type CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That] is found.

that

the traversable to append.

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.

returns

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

Note that :-ending operators are right associative (see example). A mnemonic for +: vs. :+ is: the COLon goes on the COLlection side.

Also, the original stream is not modified, so you will want to capture the result.

def /:[B](z: B)(op: (B, Nothing) ⇒ B): B

Applies a binary operator to a start value and all elements of this traversable or iterator, going left to right.

def addString(b: mutable.StringBuilder, start: String, sep: String, end: String): mutable.StringBuilder

Write all defined elements of this iterable into given string builder. The written text begins with the string start and is finished by the string end. Inside, the string representations of defined elements (w.r.t. the method toString()) are separated by the string sep. The method will not force evaluation of undefined elements. A tail of such elements will be represented by a "?" instead. A cyclic stream is represented by a "..." at the point where the cycle repeats.

b

The collection.mutable.StringBuilder factory to which we need to add the string elements.

start

The prefix of the resulting string (e.g. "Stream(")

sep

The separator between elements of the resulting string (e.g. ",")

end

scala> val b = new StringBuilder()
b: StringBuilder =

scala> a.addString(b, ", ")

def aggregate[B](z: ⇒ B)(seqop: (B, Nothing) ⇒ B, combop: (B, B) ⇒ B): B

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 >: Nothing](x: A1, default: (A1) ⇒ B1): B1

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.

x

final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

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.

def combinations(n: Int): Iterator[Stream[Nothing]]

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.

returns

final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

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.

def hasDefiniteSize: Boolean

Tests whether this stream 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.

returns

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

def zipWithIndex[A1 >: Nothing, That](implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[Stream[Nothing], (A1, Int), That]): That

Zips this iterable with its indices. s.zipWithIndex is equivalent to s zip s.indices.

This method is much like zip in that it returns a single lazy Stream of scala.Tuple2.

A1

The type of the first element of the scala.Tuple2 in the resulting stream.

That

The type of the resulting Stream.

bf

an implicit value of class CanBuildFrom which determines the result class That from the current representation type Repr and the new element type (A1, Int).

returns

Stream({a0,0}, ..., {an,n)}

Example:
    def naturalsFrom(i: Int): Stream[Int] = i #:: naturalsFrom(i + 1)
    (naturalsFrom(1) zipWithIndex) take 5 foreach println
    // prints
    // (1,0)
    // (2,1)
    // (3,2)
    // (4,3)
