     a hash value consistent with ==

7. #### def == (arg0: Any): Boolean

   Test two objects for equality.

   Test two objects for equality.

   returns

     `true` if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; `false` otherwise.

8. #### 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 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.

   returns

     the receiver object.

9. #### 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.

10. #### def eq (arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    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:

    - 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`).

    returns

      `true` if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; `false` otherwise.

11. #### def equals (arg0: Any): Boolean

    The equality method for reference types. See equals in Any.

    returns

12. #### def finalize (): Unit

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    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.

13. #### def getClass (): java.lang.Class[_]

    returns

      AnyRef → Any

15. #### def isInstanceOf [T0] : Boolean

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    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.

    returns

      `true` if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type `T0`; `false` otherwise.

    Creates a new builder by applying a transformation function to the results of this builder.

    NewTo

      the type of collection returned by `f`.

    f

      the transformation function.

    returns

      a new builder which is the same as the current builder except that a transformation function is applied to this builder's result.

20. #### def sizeHint (coll: scala.collection.TraversableLike[_, _], delta: Int = 0): Unit

    Gives a hint that one expects the `result` of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta.

    Gives a hint that one expects the `result` of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta. This will provide a hint only if the collection is known to have a cheap `size` method. Currently this is assumed to be the case if and only if the collection is of type `IndexedSeqLike`. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

    coll

      the collection which serves as a hint for the result's size.

    delta

      a correction to add to the `coll.size` to produce the size hint.

22. #### def sizeHintBounded (size: Int, boundingColl: scala.collection.TraversableLike[_, _]): Unit

    Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next `result` is called, together with an upper bound given by the size of some other collection.

    size

      the hint how many elements will be added.

    boundingColl
