Introduction to Scala Training

Scala is a powerful and expressive language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine, and that is fully interoperable with Java. It supports both object oriented and functional programming paradigms, and as such provides an excellent option for expanding existing Java projects into a more functional realm, allowing those projects to benefit from the paradigms flexibility, expressiveness, extensibility, and approach to thread safety, without having to rewrite the project from scratch. The Introduction to Scala course covers the key features of the Scala programming language that are needed to write real code, and to benefit from the functional features that the language offers. The class includes extensive practical work to give learners the best possible chance to truly grasp both the new syntax and--probably more importantly--the new design concepts.
