More Functional in Java with JavaSlang
Friday - Oct 20 4:45 PM CDT - SALON B
Java 8 is pretty great, but mix in JavaSlang (now called Vavr) and get ready for some functional programming excitement.
JavaSlang is a project that decorates Java with immutable data structures, better Optionals, tuples, and more. Now with JavaSlang (Vavr) we can really bring in some more power to functional programming and Java. We will even discuss some new concepts like for comprehensions, Try, and Either!
