Talking about Scala

I will talk about Scala at the XPUG Rhein/Main (in Frankfurt / Germany) Meeting on October 6, 2009.

Beside a general introduction, we’ll take a closer look at some of the new possibilities that come along with the fusion of object oriented concepts and the ideas of functional programming, trying to widen the horizon esp. for imperative thinking ‘brains’ …

Come along and feel welcome if you want to know more about functions as first class objects, Pattern Matching, Mixins or how to write your own custom control structures, making Scala a truly SCAlable LAnguage (and may want to discuss about afterwards).

Just give me a note at mario.gleichmann@mg-informatik.de if you’re interested to attend and i’m up for sharing further contact / meeting infos with you (talk will be in german, slides will be in english).

Entrance is free!
