What is Functional Programming Principles in Scala Training about?

Functional programming is becoming increasingly widespread in industry. This trend is driven by adopting of Scala as the primary programming language for many applications. Scala fuses functional and object-oriented programming in a practical package. It interoperates seamlessly with both Java and Javascript. Scala is the implementation language of many important frameworks, including Apache Spark, Kafka, and Akka. It provides the core infrastructure for sites such as Twitter, Netflix, Zalando, and Coursera.

In this course, you will discover the elements of the functional programming style and learn how to apply them usefully in your daily programming tasks, such as modelling business domains or implementing business logic. You will also develop a solid foundation for reasoning about functional programs by touching upon proofs of invariants and the tracing of execution symbolically.

What are the objectives of Functional Programming Principles in Scala Training ?

Understand the Why, What and How that underlies pure functional programming, and learn to “think like a fundamentalist.”
Apply the concepts of functional programming to “code like a hacker” in mainstream programming languages

Module 1: Higher Order Functions

This week, we'll learn about functions as first-class values and higher-order functions. We'll also learn about Scala's syntax and how it's formally defined. Finally, we'll learn about methods, classes, and data abstraction by designing a data structure for rational numbers.

Module 2: Data and Abstraction

This week, we'll cover traits and learn how to organise classes into hierarchies. We'll cover the order of standard Scala types and see how to manage courses and attributes into packages. Finally, we'll touch upon the different sorts of polymorphism in Scala.

Module 3: Types and Pattern Matching

This week, we'll learn about the relationship between functions and objects in Scala; functions *are* objects! We'll zoom in on Scala's type system, covering subtyping and generics, and moving on to more advanced aspects of Scala's type system like variance. Finally, we'll cover Scala's most widely used data structure, Lists, and one of Scala's most powerful tools, pattern matching.

Module 4: Lists

This week, we dive into Lists, Scala's most used data structure.

Module 5: Collections

After a deep dive into Lists, we'll explore other data structures, vectors, maps, ranges, arrays, and more this week. We'll dive into Scala's powerful and flexible for-comprehensions for querying data.

Reviews

My outlook on training changed completely after attending SpringPeople BPC training. The content, the trainer and infrastructure at SpringPeople were top notch and perfectly in tune with the industry requirements. Regardless to say, training is now something that I look forward to to. Kudos to everyone at SpringPeople!

I attended the 3-day AngularJs training at SpringPeople. The trainer was an industry veteran with vast experience in the subject. Notably, the hands-on training, and the Q&A session stood out. Overall, I found SpringPeople a great place to learn with excellent facilities and great trainers. Would recommend SpringPeople to my colleagues and friends.

I attended the training on API Design for Mulesoft. The sessions were well planned and value-laden. I benefited immensely from the hands-on experience enabled through virtual labs. I would like to specifically commend the efficiency of the support team who were always available to resolve my concerns.

I attended the jQuery training batch, conducted by Mr. Vijay, an SME who did a thorough coverage of all the essentials. He took us through concepts such as jQuery animations, event handlers, plugins, and jQuery-UI by small programs, very easily. The sessions were useful and well structured. By the end of the training, I was well equipped to develop a SPA on Product Management System. Overall, the learning experience at SpringPeople was great!
