Scala for Java Developers All Day Workshop (Laptops Required)
ÜberConf
Denver · June 24 - 27, 2014
About this Presentation
A full day, Scala hands-on workshop, that takes your typical Java code that you use day after day, and transforms into idiomatic functional Scala code. The result? Cleaner and more concise code.
We cover the “scala-fication” of:
- POJOs
- Collections
- Packages and Imports
- Flow Control
- I/O
We will also cover new topics if you are new functional programming like:
- Pattern Matching
- Optional Types
