/*
Set yourself up:
1) Download Scala - http://www.scala-lang.org/downloads
2) unzip/untar in your favourite location and put the bin subdir on the path
3) Start a scala REPL by typing scala. You should see the prompt:
scala>
This is the so called REPL. You can run commands in the REPL. Let do just that:
*/
println(10) // prints the integer 10
println("Boo!") // printlns the string Boo!
// Evaluating a command gives you the type and value of the result
1 + 7
/* The above line results in:
scala> 1 + 7
res29: Int = 8
This means the result of evaluating 1 + 7 is an object of type Int with a value of 8
1+7 will give you the same result
*/
// Everything is an object, including a function type these in the repl:
7 // results in res30: Int = 7 (res30 is just a generated var name for the result)
// The next line gives you a function that takes an Int and returns it squared
(x:Int) => x * x
// You can assign this function to an identifier, like this:
val sq = (x:Int) => x * x
/* The above says this
sq: Int => Int = <function1>
Which means that this time we gave an explicit name to the value - sq is a function that take an Int and returns Int.
sq can be executed as follows:
*/
sq(10) // Gives you this: res33: Int = 100. The result is the Int with a value 100
// Data structures
val a = Array(1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13)
a(0)
a(3)
a(21) // Throws an exception
val m = Map("fork" -> "tenedor", "spoon" -> "cuchara", "knife" -> "cuchillo")
m("fork")
m("spoon")
m("bottle") // Throws an exception
