Advanced Scala Programming Course Overview

Advanced Scala Programming Course Overview

The Advanced Scala Programming course is designed for experienced Scala developers who want to deepen their understanding of the language and its idiomatic usage in building robust and scalable applications. This comprehensive course covers a range of advanced topics, from sbt build tool mastery and type system intricacies to functional programming techniques and beyond.

Module 1: Building with sbt sets the foundation by teaching learners how to effectively create and manage Scala projects using sbt, exploring build definition files, managing dependencies, and establishing a productive build workflow.

Module 2: Working with Types delves into Scala's powerful type system, discussing concepts like type constructor polymorphism and type bounds, which are crucial for writing type-safe code.

Module 3: Functional Programming introduces advanced functional programming concepts such as tail recursion, currying, and lazy evaluation, emphasizing writing clean and maintainable code.

Module 4: Collections compares mutable and immutable collections, ensuring developers know when and how to use each effectively, including leveraging Scala's rich collection library.

Module 5: Pattern Matching teaches robust data handling and extraction techniques through deep matching and the use of extractors and regular expressions.

Module 6: Implicits explores the nuances of implicit arguments, conversions, and the powerful pattern of type classes, which enable more expressive and concise code.

Module 7: Functional Exception Handling presents a functional approach to error handling, moving away from traditional exception handling towards using the `Try` construct for more reliable and composable error management.

By the end of this course, learners will have a thorough understanding of advanced Scala features, enabling them to write more efficient, type-safe, and maintainable Scala code.

This is a Rare Course and it can be take up to 3 weeks to arrange the training.
