Course Description
Scala is a programming language designed to include advantages from both object-oriented and functional programming paradigms. It is a concise, agile, and scalable language that can handle lots of data in real time. Scala is a popular choice for many open source and Big Data projects. The prominent Big Data framework, Apache Spark, is also developed using Scala.
Adastra Academy’s ‘Scala in Practice’ includes a general overview, the benefits of programming in Scala, and several hands-on exercises. Unlike other courses, students taking ‘Scala in Practice’ quickly become proficient in coding and develop a Mobile App as part of the course work. We also explore Scala’s main features that make it a unique programming language and various enterprise applications to understand why it is more often deployed than others.

should hae more hands on experience for the object oriented part
By Mark Roberts on 11/22/2017
It covers the core points but no "deep" explanation of things. But that is, perhaps, not what is intended
By Jesus Navarro on 10/25/2017
No slides, no that deep in many topics. too simple and presentations and material with many errors, typos. In general, not that professional.
By Andrea Turcanova on 8/8/2017
Bad sound, some redundant information, unsatisfactory exercise,...

Disappointment, especially the exercises.

Nice introductory course. I specially found Section 5 - Functional Programming very useful.

I found this course to be very informative. It is rich in examples and the commentators are very clear and engaging in their explanations.
