// Scala Lecture 1

//=================

// Value assignments

// (their names should be lower case)

//====================================

val x = 42

val y = 3 + 4

val z = x / y

// (you cannot reassign values: z = 9 will give an error)

// Hello World

//=============

// an example of a stand-alone Scala file

// (in the assignments you must submit a plain Scala script)

object Hello extends App { 

  println("hello world")

}

// can then be called with

//

// $> scalac hello-world.scala

// $> scala Hello

//

// $> java -cp /usr/local/src/scala/lib/scala-library.jar:. Hello

// Collections

//=============

List(1,2,3,1)

Set(1,2,3,1)

// ranges

1 to 10

(1 to 10).toList

(1 until 10).toList

// picking an element in a list

// some alterative syntax for lists

1 :: 2 :: 3 :: Nil

List(1, 2, 3) ::: List(4, 5, 6)

// also

List(1, 2, 3) ++ List(4, 5, 6)

// Equality in Scala is structural

//=================================

val a = "Dave"

val b = "Dave"

if (a == b) println("Equal") else println("Unequal")

Set(1,2,3) == Set(3,1,2)

List(1,2,3) == List(3,1,2)

// this applies to "concrete" values...pretty much everything;

// Printing/Strings

//==================

println(lst.toString)

println(lst.mkString)

println(lst.mkString("{", ",", "}"))

// (in this case .mkString can take no, one, 

// or three arguments...this has to do with

// default arguments)

// Conversion methods

//===================

/* Scala is a strongly typed language

 * base types

    Int, Long, BigInt, Float, Double

    String, Char

    Boolean...

 * compound types 

    List[Int]

    Set[Double]

    Pairs: (Int, String)        

    List[(BigInt, String)]

    Option[Int]

 * user-defined types (later)

*/

// you can make the type of a value explicit
