Functional code is easier to test and reuse, simpler to parallelize, and less prone to bugs than other code. Scala is an emerging JVM language that offers strong support for FP. Its familiar syntax and transparent interoperability with Java make Scala a great place to start learning FP. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eFunctional Programming in Scala\u003c\/i\u003e is a serious tutorial for programmers looking to learn FP and apply it to their everyday work.
