Learning a new programming language can be a daunting task, but Scala Succinctly makes it a simple matter. Author Chiranjit Hazarika (Developer cj) guides readers through the basics of Scala, from installation to syntax shorthand, so that they can get up and running quickly.
Scala is a general-purpose language designed with both object-oriented and functional mechanisms. Scala can be used as a standalone application language, but it can also be used to develop modules for Java-based programs. The language was developed to express paradigms that are difficult to express in Java. The Scala compiler (a program called scalac.exe) uses the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in order to compile source code to Java bytecode for execution.
