Southern BITS of Technical Goodness

First get your environment setup:

1) Get IDE (NetBeans)

(http://wiki.netbeans.org/Scala68v1) for Netbeans 6.8M2 and everything
worked fine (I had to do the tip at the bottom for helloworld to
work).

2) Get Scala Snapshot

The instructions aren’t clear on how to download scala snapshot, so
here is direct link:
http://www.scala-lang.org/archives/downloads/distrib/files/nightly/distributions/scala-2.8.0.latest.zip

3) Play w/ the language online or use REPL

• http://simplyscala.com/
• Open command & type Scala (must have installed #2)

4) Read about the language:

• http://programming-scala.labs.oreilly.com/

5) Go forth and be productive
