COSC250 - Functional and Reactive Programming

Go to class Write review

Overview

This is an experimental attempt to put up a public site around one of my teaching courses. The course teaches Scala, functional programming, and some asynchronous and reactive programming. It's designed for second year undergraduate students, who mostly have experience of imperative languages (Python and Java).

Right now, I'm altering the course for Scala 3 and altering the site to use Doctacular, so this site may appear a litle bare.
