The Scala Option[T] is referred to as a carrier of one element or none for a specified type. As the name suggests, this container holds either a Some or a None object, which represents a missing value. It holds Some[T] if a value is stored, otherwise none. In simple words, Scala options are wrappers for missing values.
Example:
object option
{
def main(args: Array[String])
{
val employee: Map("InterviewBit" -> "Aarav", "Scaler" -> "Ankesh")
val a= employee.get("InterviewBit")
val b= employee.get("Informatica")
println(a);
println(b);
}
}
Output:
Some(Aarav)
None
