Riassunto

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.

Recipes cover:

• 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
• Best practices, including pattern matching, modules, and functional error handling

Informazioni sull?autore

Alvin Alexander took the circuitous route to software development. He managed to get a degree in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University while all he wanted to do was play baseball. Once he became a practicing engineer he was volunteered to maintain the company’s software applications, and quickly realized he liked it. As a result he ended up teaching himself Fortran, C, Unix and network administration, Perl, Java, Python, Ruby, Scala, and Kotlin. During this process he started a software consulting firm, grew it to fifteen people, sold it, and moved to Alaska. After returning to the “Lower 48” he self-published two books, How I Sold My Business: A Personal Diary, and A Survival Guide for New Consultants. Since then he has written three more books: Scala Cookbook; Functional Programming, Simplified; and Hello, Scala.
