Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null.
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.

The expression x == that is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that).

a partial function with the same domain as this partial function, which maps
arguments x to k(this(x)).
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:
orElse/andThen chains does not lead to
excessive apply/isDefinedAt evaluationlift and unlift 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 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.

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 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.

ClassCastException if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type T0.

Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).
Tests whether the argument (arg0) 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:
x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.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.

The details of when and if the finalize method is invoked, as
well as the interaction between finalize and non-local returns
and exceptions, are all platform dependent.

Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.
Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics.
Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the
expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]] will return true.
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 specified type.
true if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type T0; false otherwise.

Composes this partial function with a fallback partial function which gets applied where this partial function is not defined.

the result type of the fallback function
the fallback function
a partial function which has as domain the union of the domains
of this partial function and that. The resulting partial function
takes x to this(x) where this is defined, and to that(x) where it is not.
Composes this partial function with an action function which gets applied to results of this partial function.
Composes this partial function with an action function which gets applied to results of this partial function. The action function is invoked only for its side effects; its result is ignored.
Note that expression pf.runWith(action)(x) is equivalent to
if(pf isDefinedAt x) { action(pf(x)); true } else false
except that runWith is implemented via applyOrElse and thus potentially more efficient.
Using runWith avoids double evaluation of pattern matchers and guards for partial function literals.
the action function
a function which maps arguments x to isDefinedAt(x). The resulting function
runs action(this(x)) where this is defined.

Creates a String representation of this object.
A partial function of type
PartialFunction[A, B]is a unary function where the domain does not necessarily include all values of typeA. The functionisDefinedAtallows to test dynamically if a value is in the domain of the function.Even if
isDefinedAtreturns true for ana: A, callingapply(a)may still throw an exception, so the following code is legal:It is the responsibility of the caller to call
isDefinedAtbefore callingapply, because ifisDefinedAtis false, it is not guaranteedapplywill throw an exception to indicate an error condition. If an exception is not thrown, evaluation may result in an arbitrary value.The main distinction between
PartialFunctionand scala.Function1 is that the user of aPartialFunctionmay choose to do something different with input that is declared to be outside its domain. For example:1.0, 16/07/2003
