This class implements mutable maps with AnyRef keys based on a hash table with open addressing.
Basic map operations on single entries, including contains and get, are typically significantly faster with AnyRefMap than HashMap. Note that numbers and characters are not handled specially in AnyRefMap; only plain equals and hashCode are used in comparisons.
Methods that traverse or regenerate the map, including foreach and map, are not in general faster than with HashMap. The methods foreachKey, foreachValue, mapValuesNow, and transformValues are, however, faster than alternative ways to achieve the same functionality.
Maps with open addressing may become less efficient at lookup after repeated addition/removal of elements. Although AnyRefMap makes a decent attempt to remain efficient regardless, calling repack on a map that will no longer have elements removed but will be used heavily may save both time and storage space.
This map is not intended to contain more than 229 entries (approximately 500 million). The maximum capacity is 230, but performance will degrade rapidly as 230 is approached.

An implementation of a double-ended queue that internally uses a resizable circular buffer Append, prepend, removeFirst, removeLast and random-access (indexed-lookup and indexed-replacement) take amortized constant time. In general, removals and insertions at i-th index are O(min(i, n-i)) and thus insertions and removals from end/beginning are fast.

A class for mutable bitsets.
Bitsets are sets of non-negative integers which are represented as variable-size arrays of bits packed into 64-bit words. The memory footprint of a bitset is determined by the largest number stored in it.

Base trait for collection builders.
After calling result() the behavior of a Builder (which is not also a scala.collection.mutable.ReusableBuilder) is undefined. No further methods should be called. It is common for mutable collections to be their own non-reusable Builder, in which case result() simply returns this.

This class implements mutable maps using a hashtable with red-black trees in the buckets for good worst-case performance on hash collisions. An Ordering is required for the element type. Equality as determined by the Ordering has to be consistent with equals and hashCode. Universal equality of numeric types is not supported (similar to AnyRefMap).

This class implements mutable maps with Long keys based on a hash table with open addressing.
Basic map operations on single entries, including contains and get, are typically substantially faster with LongMap than HashMap. Methods that act on the whole map, including foreach and map are not in general expected to be faster than with a generic map, save for those that take particular advantage of the internal structure of the map: foreachKey, foreachValue, mapValuesNow, and transformValues.
Maps with open addressing may become less efficient at lookup after repeated addition/removal of elements. Although LongMap makes a decent attempt to remain efficient regardless, calling repack on a map that will no longer have elements removed but will be used heavily may save both time and storage space.
This map is not intended to contain more than 229 entries (approximately 500 million). The maximum capacity is 230, but performance will degrade rapidly as 2^30 is approached.
A trait for mutable maps with multiple values assigned to a key.
This class is typically used as a mixin. It turns maps which map K to Set[V] objects into multimaps that map K to V objects.
// first import all necessary types from package `collection.mutable`
import collection.mutable.{ HashMap, MultiMap, Set }
// to create a `MultiMap` the easiest way is to mixin it into a normal
// `Map` instance
val mm = new HashMap[Int, Set[String]] with MultiMap[Int, String]
// to add key-value pairs to a multimap it is important to use
// the method `addBinding` because standard methods like `+` will
// overwrite the complete key-value pair instead of adding the
// value to the existing key
mm.addBinding(1, "a")
mm.addBinding(2, "b")
mm.addBinding(1, "c")
// mm now contains `Map(2 -> Set(b), 1 -> Set(c, a))`
// to check if the multimap contains a value there is method
// `entryExists`, which allows to traverse the including set
mm.entryExists(1, _ == "a") == true
mm.entryExists(1, _ == "b") == false
mm.entryExists(2, _ == "b") == true
// to remove a previous added value there is the method `removeBinding`
mm.removeBinding(1, "a")
mm.entryExists(1, _ == "a") == false
This class implements priority queues using a heap. To prioritize elements of type A there must be an implicit Ordering[A] available at creation.
If multiple elements have the same priority in the ordering of this PriorityQueue, no guarantees are made regarding the order in which elements are returned by dequeue or dequeueAll. In particular, that means this class does not guarantee first in first out behaviour that may be incorrectly inferred from the Queue part of the name of this class.
Only the dequeue and dequeueAll methods will return elements in priority order (while removing elements from the heap). Standard collection methods including drop, iterator, and toString will remove or traverse the heap in whichever order seems most convenient.
Therefore, printing a PriorityQueue will not reveal the priority order of the elements, though the highest-priority element will be printed first. To print the elements in order, one must duplicate the PriorityQueue (by using clone, for instance) and then dequeue them:
type of the elements in this priority queue.
val pq = collection.mutable.PriorityQueue(1, 2, 5, 3, 7) println(pq) // elements probably not in order println(pq.clone.dequeueAll) // prints ArraySeq(7, 5, 3, 2, 1)

Queue objects implement data structures that allow to insert and retrieve elements in a first-in-first-out (FIFO) manner.

ReusableBuilder is a marker trait that indicates that a Builder can be reused to build more than one instance of a collection. In particular, calling result() followed by clear() will produce a collection and reset the builder to begin building a new collection of the same type.
In general no method other than clear() may be called after result(). It is up to subclasses to implement and to document other allowed sequences of operations (e.g. calling other methods after result() in order to obtain different snapshots of a collection under construction).

A builder for mutable sequence of characters. This class provides an API mostly compatible with java.lang.StringBuilder, except where there are conflicts with the Scala collections API (such as the reverse method.)
This Builder can be reused after calling result() without an intermediate call to clear() in order to build multiple related results.

2.10
A buffer that stores elements in an unrolled linked list.
Unrolled linked lists store elements in linked fixed size arrays.
Unrolled buffers retain locality and low memory overhead properties of array buffers, but offer much more efficient element addition, since they never reallocate and copy the internal array.
However, they provide O(n/m) complexity random access, where n is the number of elements, and m the size of internal array chunks.
Ideal to use when:
concat)Better than singly linked lists for random access, but should still be avoided for such a purpose.
A hash map with references to entries which are weakly reachable. Entries are removed from this map when the key is no longer (strongly) referenced. This class wraps java.util.WeakHashMap.
