Re: [scala] Scala beginner

The book is really good and I use it as a reference all the time. You'll be stuck without it.

For what it's worth, the web site *can* be a little intimidating, when you're
trying to figure out where to begin. I found the web site much more useful
once I'd purchased and worked my way through the "Programming in Scala" book.
Saleh, you ought to consider getting that book. I cannot recommend it enough.
There's a link on the scala-lang.org web site.
