.Equivalent to
x.hashCode
except for boxed numeric types andnull
. 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. Fornull
returns a hashcode wherenull.hashCode

Return the class object representing an unboxed value type, e.g., classOf[int], not classOf[java.lang.Integer].
Return the class object representing an unboxed value type, e.g., classOf[int], not classOf[java.lang.Integer]. The compiler rewrites expressions like 5.getClass to come here.
- def arrayClass(clazz: Class[_]): Class[_]
Return the class object representing an array with element class

- @inline()
- def array_update(xs: AnyRef, idx: Int, value: Any): Unit
update generic array element
- final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0
Cast the receiver object to be of type
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 aClassCastException
at runtime, while the expressionList(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.- returns
the receiver object.
- Definition Classes
- Any
- Exceptions thrown
ClassCastException
if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of typeT0
.
- def clone(): AnyRef
Create a copy of the receiver object.
Create a copy of the receiver object.
The default implementation of the
clone
method is platform dependent.- returns
a copy of the receiver object.
- def drop[Repr](coll: Repr, num: Int)(implicit iterable: IsIterable[Repr] { type C <: Repr }): Repr
- def ensureAccessible(m: Method): Method
- 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 ofAnyRef
, and has three additional properties:- It is consistent: for any non-null instances
x
andy
of typeAnyRef
, multiple invocations ofx.eq(y)
consistently returnstrue
or consistently returnsfalse
. - For any non-null instance
x
of typeAnyRef
,x.eq(null)
andnull.eq(x)
returnsfalse
. null.eq(null)
returnstrue
.
When overriding the
equals
orhashCode
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
).- returns
true
if the argument is a reference to the receiver object;false
otherwise.

- def equals(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean
The equality method for reference types.
- def genericWrapArray[T](xs: Array[T]): ArraySeq[T]
- final def getClass(): Class[_ <: AnyRef]
Returns the runtime class representation of the object.
- def hashCode(): Int
The hashCode method for reference types.
- def isArray(x: Any, atLevel: Int = 1): Boolean
- final def isInstanceOf[T0]: Boolean
Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object has the same erasure as
T0
.Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object has the same erasure as
T0
.Depending on what
T0
is, the test is done in one of the below ways:T0
is a non-parameterized class type, e.g.BigDecimal
: this method returnstrue
if the value of the receiver object is aBigDecimal
or a subtype ofBigDecimal
.T0
is a parameterized class type, e.g.List[Int]
: this method returnstrue
if the value of the receiver object is someList[X]
for anyX
. For example,List(1, 2, 3).isInstanceOf[List[String]]
will return true.T0
is some singleton typex.type
or literalx
: this method returnsthis.eq(x)
. For example,x.isInstanceOf[1]
is equivalent tox.eq(1)
T0
is an intersectionX with Y
orX & Y: this method is equivalent to
x.isInstanceOf[X] && x.isInstanceOf[Y]T0
is a unionX | Y
: this method is equivalent tox.isInstanceOf[X] || x.isInstanceOf[Y]
T0
is a type parameter or an abstract type member: this method is equivalent toisInstanceOf[U]
whereU
isT0
's upper bound,Any
ifT0
is unbounded. For example,x.isInstanceOf[A]
whereA
is an unbounded type parameter will return true for any value ofx
.
This is exactly equivalent to the type pattern
_: T0
- returns
true
if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of typeT0
;false
otherwise.

- Any
- Note
due to the unexpectedness of
List(1, 2, 3).isInstanceOf[List[String]]
returning true andx.isInstanceOf[A]
whereA
is a type parameter or abstract member returning true, these forms issue a warning.
- final def ne(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

- def stringOf(arg: Any, maxElements: Int): String
- def stringOf(arg: Any): String
Given any Scala value, convert it to a String.
Given any Scala value, convert it to a String.
The primary motivation for this method is to provide a means for correctly obtaining a String representation of a value, while avoiding the pitfalls of naively calling toString on said value. In particular, it addresses the fact that (a) toString cannot be called on null and (b) depending on the apparent type of an array, toString may or may not print it in a human-readable form.

a string representation of arg.

- Regular expressionsOther packages exist. See the complete list on the right.
Additional parts of the standard library are shipped as separate libraries. These include:
scala.reflect

- 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 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
.
