String interpolation in Scala?

Question

I wanted to ask if there is any type of string interpolation in Scala. I have made a search on the subject but \'till now I have found that there is no string interpolation.

Answer 1

This days (Dec. 2016, Scala 2.12, five years later), you can write your own string interpolation.
See co.ntextu.al

Contextual is a small Scala library which allows you to define your own string interpolators—prefixed string literals like uri"https://google.com" which determine how they should be evaluated, at runtime and at compile-time, while only writing very ordinary user code: no macros!

For instance, contextual/examples/email.scala allows to check at compile time the validity of an email address.

import contextual.examples.email._
email"""info@scala.world"""

import contextual.examples.email._
email"""john.smith@hotmail.com"""
