# SpecialNode

#### abstract class SpecialNode extends Node with XMLEvent

`SpecialNode` is a special XML node which represents either text `(PCDATA)`, a comment, a `PI`, or an entity ref.

`SpecialNode`s also play the role of scala.xml.pull.XMLEvents for pull-parsing.

   [use case]

   Returns a new immutable sequence containing the elements from the left hand operand followed by the elements from the right hand operand. The element type of the immutable sequence is the most specific superclass encompassing the element types of the two operands.

   Example:

       scala> val a = LinkedList(1)
       a: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1)

       scala> val b = LinkedList(2)
       b: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(2)

       scala> val c = a ++ b
       c: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1, 2)

       scala> val d = LinkedList('a')
       d: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Char] = LinkedList(a)

       scala> val e = c ++ d
       e: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[AnyVal] = LinkedList(1, 2, a)

   B

     the element type of the returned collection.

   that

6. #### def ++:[B >: Node, That](that: collection.Traversable[B])(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[NodeSeq, B, That]): That

   As with `++`, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

   As with `++`, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

   It differs from `++` in that the right operand determines the type of the resulting collection rather than the left one. Mnemonic: the COLon is on the side of the new COLlection type.

   Example:

       scala> val x = List(1)
       x: List[Int] = List(1)

       scala> val y = LinkedList(2)
       y: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(2)

       scala> val z = x ++: y
       z: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1, 2)

   This overload exists because: for the implementation of `++:` we should reuse that of `++` because many collections override it with more efficient versions.

   Since `TraversableOnce` has no `++` method, we have to implement that directly, but `Traversable` and down can use the overload.

   B

     the element type of the returned collection.

   That

     the class of the returned collection. Where possible, `That` is the same class as the current collection class `Repr`, but this depends on the element type `B` being admissible for that class, which means that an implicit instance of type `CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That]` is found.

   that

     the traversable to append.

   bf

     an implicit value of class `CanBuildFrom` which determines the result class `That` from the current representation type `Repr` and the new element type `B`.

   returns

     a new collection of type `That` which contains all elements of this immutable sequence followed by all elements of `that`.

   [use case]

   A copy of the immutable sequence with an element prepended.

   Note that :-ending operators are right associative (see example). A mnemonic for `+:` vs. `:+` is: the COLon goes on the COLlection side.

   Also, the original immutable sequence is not modified, so you will want to capture the result.

   Example:

       scala> val x = LinkedList(1)
       x: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1)

       scala> val y = 2 +: x

20. #### def aggregate[B](z: B)(seqop: (B, Node) ⇒ B, combop: (B, B) ⇒ B): B

    Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.

    Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.

    This is a more general form of `fold` and `reduce`. It has similar semantics, but does not require the result to be a supertype of the element type. It traverses the elements in different partitions sequentially, using `seqop` to update the result, and then applies `combop` to results from different partitions. The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions, so `combop` may be invoked an arbitrary number of times.

    For example, one might want to process some elements and then produce a `Set`. In this case, `seqop` would process an element and append it to the list, while `combop` would concatenate two lists from different partitions together. The initial value `z` would be an empty set.

        pc.aggregate(Set[Int]())(_ += process(_), _ ++ _)

    Another example is calculating geometric mean from a collection of doubles (one would typically require big doubles for this).

    B

      the type of accumulated results

    z

      the initial value for the accumulated result of the partition - this will typically be the neutral element for the `seqop` operator (e.g. `Nil` for list concatenation or `0` for summation)

    seqop

    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 compiler generates `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:

    - combining partial functions into `orElse`/`andThen` chains does not lead to excessive `apply`/`isDefinedAt` evaluation
    - `lift` and `unlift` do not evaluate source functions twice on each invocation
    - `runWith` 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.

    x

      the function argument

    default

Therefore the expression `1.asInstanceOf[String]` will throw a `ClassCastException` at runtime, while the expression `List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]]` will not.

    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`).

    Partitions this immutable sequence into a map of immutable sequences according to some discriminator function.

    Partitions this immutable sequence into a map of immutable sequences according to some discriminator function.

    Note: this method is not re-implemented by views. This means when applied to a view it will always force the view and return a new immutable sequence.

    K

      the type of keys returned by the discriminator function.

    f

      the discriminator function.

    returns

      A map from keys to immutable sequences such that the following invariant holds:

          (xs partition f)(k) = xs filter (x => f(x) == k)

      That is, every key `k` is bound to a immutable sequence of those elements `x` for which `f(x)` equals `k`.

    Tests whether this immutable sequence is known to have a finite size.

    Tests whether this immutable sequence is known to have a finite size. All strict collections are known to have finite size. For a non-strict collection such as `Stream`, the predicate returns `true` if all elements have been computed. It returns `false` if the stream is not yet evaluated to the end.

    Note: many collection methods will not work on collections of infinite sizes.

    returns

      `true` if this collection is known to have finite size, `false` otherwise.

136. #### def par: ParSeq[Node]

     Returns a parallel implementation of this collection.

     Returns a parallel implementation of this collection.

     For most collection types, this method creates a new parallel collection by copying all the elements. For these collection, `par` takes linear time. Mutable collections in this category do not produce a mutable parallel collection that has the same underlying dataset, so changes in one collection will not be reflected in the other one.

     Specific collections (e.g. `ParArray` or `mutable.ParHashMap`) override this default behaviour by creating a parallel collection which shares the same underlying dataset. For these collections, `par` takes constant or sublinear time.

     All parallel collections return a reference to themselves.

   As with `++`, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

   As with `++`, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.

   It differs from `++` in that the right operand determines the type of the resulting collection rather than the left one. Mnemonic: the COLon is on the side of the new COLlection type.

    Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.

    Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.

    This is a more general form of `fold` and `reduce`. It has similar semantics, but does not require the result to be a supertype of the element type. It traverses the elements in different partitions sequentially, using `seqop` to update the result, and then applies `combop` to results from different partitions. The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions, so `combop` may be invoked an arbitrary number of times.

    For example, one might want to process some elements and then produce a `Set`. In this case, `seqop` would process an element and append it to the list, while `combop` would concatenate two lists from different partitions together. The initial value `z` would be an empty set.

        pc.aggregate(Set[Int]())(_ += process(_), _ ++ _)

    Another example is calculating geometric mean from a collection of doubles (one would typically require big doubles for this).

    B

      the type of accumulated results

    z

      the initial value for the accumulated result of the partition - this will typically be the neutral element for the `seqop` operator (e.g. `Nil` for list concatenation or `0` for summation)

    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 compiler generates `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:

    - combining partial functions into `orElse`/`andThen` chains does not lead to excessive `apply`/`isDefinedAt` evaluation
    - `lift` and `unlift` do not evaluate source functions twice on each invocation
    - `runWith` 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.

    x

    Returns a parallel implementation of this collection.

    For most collection types, this method creates a new parallel collection by copying all the elements. For these collection, `par` takes linear time. Mutable collections in this category do not produce a mutable parallel collection that has the same underlying dataset, so changes in one collection will not be reflected in the other one.

    Specific collections (e.g. `ParArray` or `mutable.ParHashMap`) override this default behaviour by creating a parallel collection which shares the same underlying dataset. For these collections, `par` takes constant or sublinear time.

       the predicate used to test elements.

     returns

       an object of class `WithFilter`, which supports `map`, `flatMap`, `foreach`, and `withFilter` operations. All these operations apply to those elements of this immutable sequence which satisfy the predicate `p`.
