Case classes in Scala generate a lot of boilerplate code for you, simplifying object creation and making functional programming more seamless and efficient.
The apply method generated for case classes allows for creating instances without the new keyword, making the syntax cleaner and easier to read during functional programming.
Case classes automatically create accessor methods for constructor parameters, allowing for easy access without defining explicit getters, thus promoting immutability as parameters default to val.
Generated equals and hashCode methods enhance object comparison capabilities, enabling case classes to be easily used as keys in collections like maps and sets.
