Scala FP: Let’s Start with Type Class

Before we start talking about the Functional Programming with the Scala Cats, we should refresh our memory about the Type Class and Implicit. These are the base when we start learning the Scala Cats.

Let’s start the discussion with the Type Class.

Type Class

A type class is an interface or API that represents some functionality, which we want to implement. Type class is programming pattern in…

This talk focuses on the Data type class: an abstraction for expressing a common, useful set of data transformation and manipulation actions. The code, in it’s design and implementations, make heavy use of rich, expressive types and functional principles.

We’ll dive into the code, show off some of the quirks when getting the abstraction to work with both Spark RDDs and Flink’s DataSet type. We'll also demonstrate code using this type class, showing how we can write once and run on different platforms!
