Quite a few functions on Map take a function on a key-value tuple as the argument. E.g. def foreach(f: ((A, B)) ? Unit): Unit. So I looked for a short way to write an argument to foreach:
> val map = Map(1 -> 2, 3 -> 4)
map: scala.collection.immutable.Map[Int,Int] = Map(1 -> 2, 3 -> 4)
> map.foreach((k, v) => println(k))
error: wrong number of parameters; expected = 1
map.foreach((k, v) => println(k))
^
> map.foreach({(k, v) => println(k)})
error: wrong number of parameters; expected = 1
map.foreach({(k, v) => println(k)})
^
> map.foreach(case (k, v) => println(k))
error: illegal start of simple expression
map.foreach(case (k, v) => println(k))
^
I can do
> map.foreach(_ match {case (k, v) => println(k)})
1
3
Any better alternatives?
