Scala: A Modern Programming Language 4.36

Description:

Scala is a language for the Java Virtual Machine that combines the power of Java with the flexibility of a dynamic language and the capabilities of a functional language. We’ll explore how Scala can make standard object-oriented programming more concise and powerful, and how it can make concurrency easy and clear. We’ll specifically show how these capabilities can be used with languages you might already be using, Java and Ruby.

this talk was hilarious and useful, and left me really excited about using scala. we've been looking to try some functional programming on our team, and this seems like a much better fit than anything else i've seen. nice work, Clinton!
