Good robots do what they're told. Type Classes in Scala. Type classes provide ad-hoc inheritance. Which means that we can use them to create polymorphic functions that can be applied to arguments of different types. This is a fancy way of saying that we can create common behaviour for classes without resorting to traditional (. From the Neophytes Guide. Daniel Westheide describes type classes, slightly paraphrased, as follows. Read on →. Home Brew Temperature Logger. Read on →. Read on →. Read on →.

Good robots do what they're told. Dealing with Exceptions as Monads. In some previous posts. I wrote about treating exceptions as a system wide concern. In this post, I extend that idea and talk about distinguishing between exceptional behaviour and just code that didn’t return what you wanted. Pure functional languages often discourage the use of exceptions because when they are used to control execution flow, they introduce side-affects and violate purity of function. Read on →.

Agile in a Flash. Present the blog behind the versatile. We show flash cards to students in order to help them completely ingrain a concept, to the point where they don't think about something, they just know it. The classic flash card presents a student with a vocabulary word or a math expression for which we expect almost immediate recognition and response. I show you the Spanish vocabulary word "acuario" and you blurt out "fish tank! February 21, 2009 at 10:07 AM. The other real advantage of having re...

Agile in a Flash. Present the blog behind the versatile. Premature Passes: Why You Might Be Getting Green on Red. Red, green, refactor. The first step in the test-driven development (TDD) cycle is to ensure that your newly-written test fails before. You try to write the code to make it pass. But why expend the effort and waste the time to run the tests? If you're following TDD, you write each new test for code that doesn't yet exist, and so it shouldn't pass. Running the wrong tests. If you get a prematu...
