About the Book

Scala is a concise, statically typed scripting language that runs on the Java Virtual Machine. It is both a functional programming language and object-oriented language but its emphasis on functional programming sets it apart from Java.

Learn Scala: A Practical Primer for Java Developers is for Java developers looking to transition to programming Scala. The book will help you translate the Java you already know into Scala and kick-start your productivity.

  • Translate Java syntax that you already know into Scala
  • Learn what Scala offers over and above Java, functional programming concepts and idioms
  • Tips and advice useful when transitioning existing Java projects to Scala
