17. #### def quote(text: String): String

    Quotes strings to be used literally in regex patterns.

    Quotes strings to be used literally in regex patterns.

    All regex metacharacters in the input match themselves literally in the output.

    Example:

    1.     List("US$", "CAN$").map(Regex.quote).mkString("|").r

18. #### def quoteReplacement(text: String): String

    Quotes replacement strings to be used in replacement methods.

    Quotes replacement strings to be used in replacement methods.

    Replacement methods give special meaning to backslashes (`\`) and dollar signs (`$`) in replacement strings, so they are not treated as literals. This method escapes these characters so the resulting string can be used as a literal replacement representing the input string.

    text

      The string one wishes to use as literal replacement.

    returns

      A string that can be used to replace matches with `text`.

    Example:

    1.     "CURRENCY".r.replaceAllIn(input, Regex quoteReplacement "US$")

19. #### final def synchronized[T0](arg0: ⇒ T0): T0

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef

20. #### def toString(): String

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef → Any

21. #### final def wait(): Unit

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef

22. #### final def wait(arg0: Long, arg1: Int): Unit

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef
    Annotations
      @throws( ... )

23. #### final def wait(arg0: Long): Unit

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef
