actor

I'm sure this is a very simple question, but embarrassed to say I can't get my head around it:

I have a list of values in Scala. I would like to use use actors to make some (external) calls with each value, in parallel.

I would like to wait until all values have been processed, and then proceed.

There's no shared values being modified.

Could anyone advise?

Thanks
