Implicit in Scala

// define a method that takes an implicit String
scala> def yo(implicit s:String) = println("Yo, " + s)
yo: (implicit s: String)Unit

// pass a string to it; it works
scala> yo("Adrian")
Yo, Adrian

// create an implicit String field, which is now "in scope"
scala> implicit val fred = "Fred"
fred: java.lang.String = Fred

// call yo without an argument; it magically finds fred(!)
scala> yo
Yo, Fred

// define an implicit field of a different type (Int)
scala> implicit val one = 1
one: Int = 1

// call yo again, see what happens (it finds fred again)
scala> yo
Yo, Fred

// define a second implicit String
scala> implicit val barney = "Barney"
barney: java.lang.String = Barney

// call yo again; now it can't figure out which String you want 
// it to implicitly use (fred or barney)
scala> yo
<console>:11: error: ambiguous implicit values:
 both value fred in object $iw of type => java.lang.String
 and value barney in object $iw of type => java.lang.String
 match expected type String
              yo
   

As you can see from the code, defining a method argument as implicit makes it like a magnet: If an implicit field of the same type is in scope, it pulls it right in ... with the limit that it can only deal with one implicit field of the matching type at one time.
