Description

Save time and trouble building object-oriented, functional, and concurrent applications with Scala. The latest edition of this comprehensive cookbook is packed with more than 250 ready-to-use recipes and 1,000 code examples to help you solve the most common problems when working with Scala 3 and its popular libraries.

Scala changes the way you think about programming–and that’s a good thing. Whether you’re working on web, big data, or distributed applications, this cookbook provides recipes based on real-world scenarios for both experienced Scala developers and programmers just learning to use this JVM language. Author Alvin Alexander includes practical solutions from his experience using Scala for component-based, highly scalable applications that support concurrency and distribution.

   Strings, numbers, and control structures
   Classes, methods, objects, traits, packaging, and imports
   Functional programming techniques
   Scala’s wealth of collections classes and methods
   Building and publishing Scala applications with sbt
   Actors and concurrency with Scala Future and Akka Typed
   Popular libraries, including Spark, Scala.js, Play Framework, and GraalVM
   Types, such as variance, givens, intersections, and unions
