SCALA

It is one of the fastest Language I’ve ever experienced it.

Guess what its a object oriented programming language with high emphasis on Functional Concepts.

The people who know java can understand scala very easily because

1. Its very similar to java
2. It runs on top of JVM
3. code reduces to large extend when compared to java
4. All Java Libraries can be used in Scala with the simple import statement
5. Everything is a object
6. Domain Specific Language

Its the best thing that can happen to JAVA ,this is where functional language pattern meets OOP.
