Multiparadigm Programming in Scala Adapted from presentation by H. C. Cunningham and J. C. Church University of Mississipi

What is Multiparadigm Programming? Definition: A multiparadigm programming language provides “ a framework in which programmers can work in a variety of styles, freely intermixing constructs from different paradigms. ” [Tim Budd] Programming paradigms: imperative versus declarative (e.g., functional, logic) other dimensions – object-oriented, component-oriented, concurrency-oriented, etc. ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 2
3
Why Learn Multiparadigm Programming? Tim Budd: “ Research results from the psychology of programming indicate that expertise in programming is far more strongly related to the number of different programming styles understood by an individual than it is the number of years of experience in programming. ” The “ goal of multiparadigm computing is to provide... a number of different problem-solving styles ” so that a programmer can “ select a solution technique that best matches the characteristics of the problem ”. ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 3
4
Why Teach Multiparadigm Programming? Contemporary imperative and object-oriented languages increasingly have functional programming features, e.g., higher order functions (closures) higher order functions (closures) list comprehensions list comprehensions New explicitly multiparadigm (object- oriented/functional) languages are appearing, e.g., Scala on the Java platform (and.Net in future) Scala on the Java platform (and.Net in future) F# on the.Net platform F# on the.Net platform ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 4

Scala Programming language developed by Martin Odersky ’ s team at EPFL in Switzerland Executes on the Java platform Integrates with Java Has growing usage (e.g., Twitter, Foursquare, and Linkedin) Multiparadigm language Object-oriented (with generics and mixins) Functional (similar to Haskell and SML) Extensible (method calls as operators, currying, closures, by- name parameters) Actor-based concurrency-oriented programming Actor-based concurrency-oriented programming Language-oriented programming Language-oriented programming Statically typed with Hindley-Milner type inference ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 5

6 Why Scala? (Coming from Java/C++) Runs on the JVM Runs on the JVM Can use any Java code in Scala Can use any Java code in Scala Almost as fast as Java (within 10%) Almost as fast as Java (within 10%) Much shorter code Much shorter code Odersky reports 50% reduction in most code over Java Odersky reports 50% reduction in most code over Java Local type inference Local type inference Fewer errors Fewer errors No Null Pointer problems No Null Pointer problems More flexibility More flexibility As many public classes per source file as you want As many public classes per source file as you want Operator overloading Operator overloading

9 Basic Scala Use var to declare variables: Use var to declare variables: var x = 3; x += 4; Use val to declare values (final vars) Use val to declare values (final vars) val y = 3; y += 4; // error Notice no types, but it is statically typed Notice no types, but it is statically typed var x = 3; x = “hello world”; // error Type annotations: Type annotations: var x : Int = 3;

Defining Hello World object HelloWorld { def main(args: Array[String]){ def main(args: Array[String]){ println("Hey world!") println("Hey world!") }} Singleton object named HelloWorld (also replaces static methods and variables) Method main defined (procedure) Parameter args of type Array[String] Array is generic class with type parameter ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 11

Numbers are Objects Consider expression 1 + 2 * 3 / x Operators are method calls (like Smalltalk) Operator symbols are identifiers Expression above is same as (1).+(((2).*(3))./(x)) ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 14
15
Functions are Objects object Timer { def oncePerSecond(callback:() => Unit){ def oncePerSecond(callback:() => Unit){ while (true) { while (true) { callback(); Thread sleep 1000 callback(); Thread sleep 1000 } // 1-arg method sleep used as operator } // 1-arg method sleep used as operator } def welcome() { def welcome() { println("Welcome to CS3180!") println("Welcome to CS3180!") } def main(args: Array[String]) { def main(args: Array[String]) { oncePerSecond(welcome) oncePerSecond(welcome) }} ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 15

Classes class Complex(real: Double, imag: Double){ def re = real def re = real def im = imag def im = imag} Class primary constructor combined with class body Parameters of class private constants within class Parameterless methods re and im Return types of re and im inferred from expression (cannot be inferred for recursive functions) Thus more concise syntax ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 18

Case Classes abstract class Tree // Expression Trees case class Sum(l: Tree, r: Tree) extends Tree extends Tree case class Var(n: String) extends Tree case class Const(v: int) extends Tree Cf. Algebraic data types as in functional languages Keyword new not needed to create instances (objects) Getters defined automatically for constructor parameters Pattern matching can be used to decompose equals method defined on structure of instances ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 21

Scala Functions Are first-class values – i.e., functions are objects Can be higher-order – take functions as arguments or return them as result Can be anonymous May be curried – take arguments one at a time, allowing partial application Are often passed in a closure – with references to free variables they maninpulate Provide ability to build powerful libraries of higher- order functions ScalaMulti CS3180 (Prasad) 32
