Scala
Q1. Scala bytecode can run on top of Java VM. What is the fundamental difference between Java object.clone() and Scala object.copy()?
- One is a Java object, the other is a Scala object.
- clone() will copy class structures but not the data, while copy() will also copy data into new objects.
- There is no difference.
- copy() allows you to change values during the copying process; clone() does not.
Q2. What value does this code return?
val m1 = Map("a"->1,"b"->2,"c"->3)
m1("a")
- a
- 2
- b
- 1
Q3. What is one way to avoid low-level parallelization details?
- monads
- literal functions
- partially applied functions
- parallel collections
Q4. What do you use in ScalaTest to see a detailed diagram of error messages when a test fails?
- ArgumentExceptions
- AssertionException
- DiagrammedAssertions
- JUnit
Q5. What data type would you use to store an immutable collection of objects that contain a fixed number of varying types?
- Array
- ImmutableCollection
- List
- Tuple
()
indicate?
Q6. After defining a function in the interpreter, Scala returns the following. What does the myfnc: ()Unit
- The function has no side effects.
- The function takes no parameters.
- The function returns no value.
- Returning unit types to the function is a closures.
Q7. What type of number is 1234.e5?
- hexadecimal
- short
- floating point
- long
toList
method of the map, the result will be of which type?
Q8. When you convert a map to a list using the -
List[(String, String)]
-
List[(Array, Array)]
-
List[(Collection, Collection)]
-
List
Q9. What type of object does this code create?

- List
- Map
- Tuple
- Array
Q10. Which is a subclass of all classes?
- AnyVal
- AnyRef
- Method
- Null
Null in Scala Standard library. The question is a bit incorrect - Null is a subtype of every type except those of value classes
Q11. For the for-yield construct, is the scope separate between for-body and yield-body?
- Yes and no. It is different depending on the for construct and what it does.
- Yes, because the for section does not expose its scope.
- No, because for-yield shares the same scope, even though they are within separate curly braces.
- Yes, because they are within different curly braces.
Example: yield-body has access to the e
variable from the for-body
val a = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
for {
e <- a if e > 2
} yield e
Q12. What is one way to implement pattern matching on methods?
- using regex
- using monads

Q17. When using pattern matching, which character matches on any object?
-
%
-
_ [answer]
-
^
-
-
Q18. You have created an array using val. Can you change the value of any element of the array—and why or why not?
- Yes, the reference to the array is immutable, so the location that the array points to is immutable. The values in the array are mutable.
- The 0th element is immutable and cannot be modified. All other elements can be modified.
- Yes, val does not make arrays immutable.
- No, val makes the array and values of the array immutable.
Explanation:
val a1 = Array(1, 2, 3)
a1{1} = 3 // OK
a1 = Array(1, 3, 3) // error: reassignment to val

- functional objects
- fixed objects
Note: singletons may have mutable state
Q21. You have written a Scala script. How would you access command-line arguments in the script?
- use array named args

- use numbered variables with a _ prefix for example _ 1, _ 2, _ 3
- use numbered variables with a $ prefix - for example $1, $2, $3
val x = 3; if (x > 2) x = 4 else x = x*2
Q22. What does this code return? - 4
