Location: SRT Solutions 206 S. Fifth Ave, Suite 200 Ann Arbor, MI 48104 (734) 929-3211
Abstract: Scala has gotten a lot of press in the past few years. Some people love it for its support of functional programming. Others think it’s a completely awesome replacement for Java. But others think it’s way too complex for the average developer. Let’s put it all out there. In this talk, we’ll look at the syntax together and decide what there is to love and what there is to hate.
By the end of this talk, you will have enough exposure to the language to make up your own mind. We’ll leave it up to you to decide if you’re an average developer or not!
