belongs to collection: Scala List Programs

0

Here, we will create a list of integers using List collection. Then we will print the first item of the created list using the head property on the console screen.

The List collection is used to store ordered elements. It extends the LinearSeq trait and is used for the immutable linked list.

The source code to print the head item of the List collection is given below. The given program is compiled and executed on the ubuntu 18.04 operating system successfully.

// Scala program to print the
// head item of List collection

import scala.collection.immutable._

object Sample {

  }
}

Output:

Head item of list is: 8

Explanation:

In the above program, we used an object-oriented approach to create the program. Here we imported Collection classes using below statement,

import scala.collection.immutable._

Here, we also created a singleton object Sample and defined the main() function. The main() function is the entry point for the program.

In the main() function, we created a list intList using List collection. Then we printed the first item of the created list using the head property on the console screen.
