Chart of IEnumerable LINQ equivalents in Scala?

I am only listing out the equivalents of functions from Enumerable<A>. This is incomplete as of now. I will try to update this later with more.

There is no direct equivalent of some functions, but it's fairly easy to roll your own. Here are some such functions.

Single:

def single[A](xs: Traversable[A]): A = {
  if(xs.isEmpty) sys error "Empty sequence!"
  else if(xs.size > 1) sys error "More than one elements!"
  else xs.head
}

SingleOrDefault:

def singleOrDefault[A : Zero](xs: Traversable[A]): A = {
  if(xs.isEmpty) mzero
  else if(xs.size > 1) sys error "More than one elements!"
  else xs.head
}

Join:

def join[A, B, K, R](outer: Traversable[A], inner: Traversable[B])
    (outKey: A => K, inKey: B => K, f: (A, B) => R): Traversable[R] = {
  for(o <- outer; i <- inner; if outKey(o) == inKey(i)) yield f(o, i)
}

GroupJoin:

def groupJoin[A, B, K, R](outer: Traversable[A], inner: Traversable[B])
    (outKey: A => K, inKey: B => K, f: (A, Traversable[B]) => R): Traversable[R] = {
  for(o <- outer) yield {
    val zs = for(i <- inner; if outKey(o) == inKey(i)) yield i
    f(o, zs)
  }
}

Notes:

1. In idiomatic Scala, total functions are generally preferred over partial functions. So, idiomatic implementation of single and singleOrDefault would produce a value of type Either[Exception, A] instead of A. For example, here is refined implementation of single that returns Either[Exception, A].

   def single[A](xs: Traversable[A]): Either[Exception, A] = {
     if(xs.isEmpty) Left(new RuntimeException("Empty sequence!"))
     else if(xs.size > 1) Left(new RuntimeException("More than one elements!"))
     else Right(xs.head)
   }
   

2. Scalaz's Zero/mzero are not quite same as C#'s default value mechanism. For details, you can refer to this post I wrote on this topic some time back.

3. You can use enrich-my-library pattern to achieve the same effect as C#'s extension methods. Refer to this and this for details.
