What are all the uses of an underscore in Scala?

Question

I\'ve taken a look at the list of surveys taken on scala-lang.org and noticed a curious question: \"Can you name all the uses of “_”?\". Can you? If yes, please do so here.

Answer 1

There is one usage I can see everyone here seems to have forgotten to list...

Rather than doing this:

List("foo", "bar", "baz").map(n => n.toUpperCase())

You could can simply do this:

List("foo", "bar", "baz").map(_.toUpperCase())
