continues to grow for many reasons. Scala embraces the functional
programming style without abandoning the object-oriented paradigm, and
it allows you to write programs more concisely than in Java. Because
Scala runs on the JVM, it can access any Java library and is
interoperable with familiar Java frameworks. Scala also makes it
easier to leverage the full power of concurrency. Written for
experienced Java, C , or C# programmers who are new to Scala or
functional programming, Scala for the Impatient, Second Edition,
introduces the key Scala concepts and techniques you need in order to
be productive quickly. It is the perfect introduction to the language,
particularly for impatient readers who want to learn the fundamentals
of Scala so they can start coding quickly. It doesn’t attempt to
exhaustively list all the features of the language or make you suffer
through long and contrived examples. Instead, carefully crafted
examples and hands-on activities guide you through well-defined stages
of competency, from basic to expert. This revised edition has been
thoroughly updated for Scala 2.12 and reflects current Scala usage. It
includes added coverage of recent Scala features, including string
interpolation, dynamic invocation, implicit classes, and futures.
Scala is a big language, but you can use it effectively without
knowing all of its details intimately. This title provides precisely
the information that you need to get started in compact,
easy-to-understand chunks. Get started quickly with Scala’s
interpreter, syntax, tools, and unique idioms Master core language
features: functions, arrays, maps, tuples, packages, imports,
exception handling, and more Become familiar with object-oriented
programming in Scala: classes, inheritance, and traits Use Scala for
real-world programming tasks: working with files, regular expressions,
and XML Work with higher-order functions and the powerful Scala
collections library Leverage Scala’s powerful pattern matching and
case classes Create concurrent programs with Scala futures Implement
domain-specific languages Understand the Scala type system Apply
advanced “power tools,” such as annotations, implicits, and type
classes
