title: In scala can I pass repeated parameters to other methods?
body: <p>Here is something I can do in java, take the results of a repeated parameter and pass it to another method:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public void foo(String ... args){bar(args);}
  public void bar(String ... args){System.out.println("count="+args.length);}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In scala it would look like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>def foo(args:String*) = bar(args)
  def bar(args:String*) = println("count="+args.length)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But this won't compile, the bar signature expects a series of individual strings, and the args passed in is some non-string structure.  </p>
  
  <p>For now I'm just passing around arrays.  It would be very nice to use starred parameters.  Is there some way to do it?</p>
