Scala programming

Scala: a programming language which "scales" with your as a programmer, and which you can easily master in 4 days at ABIS!

In this training, you learn the functional programming style with Scala, a programming language that can be used at several levels: from simple scripts to complex applications which are nevertheless very maintainable thanks to the flexibility and lisibility of Scala, and its "strong typing" datatype system.

During this training

  • you will gain insight into the unique features of Scala,
  • you learn how to apply functional programming,
  • and how to combine this with the use of objects and classes.
