This is the repository of the course on Functional Programming in Scala taught at the University Rey Juan Carlos.

The course basically includes several notebooks on the following topics:

• PF-1.1 Object-oriented Scala
• PF-2.1 Functions and algebraic data types
• PF-2.2 Recursive functions and ADTs
• PF-2.3 The Curry-Howard correspondence
• PF-3.1 The Hall-of-Fame of HOFs
• PF-3.2 HOFs as a query language

Intro.pdf -- (Spanish, URJC specifics)

To access these notebooks you need first to install git and clone this repository in your local drive:

> git clone https://github.com/jserranohidalgo/urjc-pd.git pd

Then, run the program:

jupyter notebook

in the root directory of the repository, if you already installed jupyter in your computer (see instructions below).

Alternatively, you can skip the manual installation of jupyter and run it through docker as follows:

docker run -it --rm -p 8888:8888 -p 4040:4040 -m 4g -v "$PWD":/home/jovyan/work almondsh/almond:latest (LINUX)

docker run -it --rm -p 8888:8888 -p 4040:4040 -m 4g -v <<c:/path/to/downloaded/folder>>:/home/jovyan/work almondsh/almond:latest (WINDOWS)

(also in the root directory of the repository)

Finally, note that jupyter is already installed in the virtual environment MyApps (just for URJC users).

To install jupyter and run Scala notebooks, follow these steps:

• Install the package manager conda, or use pip, the python package manager.
• Install jupyter itself
• Alternatively, you can also find jupyter notebooks for free when installing anaconda.
• Install the Scala plugin almond

• The installation command hangs (most likely, on windows)

Execute the installation command with the verbose option enabled (-v -v):

    .\coursier launch --fork almond -M almond.ScalaKernel -v -v -- --install

When the program hangs, stop it (C-c C-c). Most likely, the last command that was attempted was something like "Running java ...". Copy-paste that java invocation and run it manually:

    java -Dscala-kernel.version=<...> -jar <...> --install

Luckily, this will complete the installation of the almond kernel.

• "Cannot find default main class. Specify one with -M or --main-class" (most likely, on linux)

Add the option -M almond.ScalaKernel to the installation command, i.e.

    ./coursier launch --fork almond -M almond.ScalaKernel -- --install
