What is Scala?

Scala combines object-oriented and functional programming in one concise, high-level language. Scala runs on the Java platform (Java virtual machine) and is compatible with existing Java programs.

Its JVM and JavaScript runtimes let you build high-performance systems with easy access to huge ecosystems of libraries.

Scala stands for SCAlable LAnguage and is designed and developed by Martin Odersky. Scala was released publicly in early 2004.
