[Languages] Getting Started with Scala collections

Proposed title of article

Getting Started with Scala collections

Proposed article introduction

Scala is a general-purpose, high-level, multi-paradigm programming language. It is a pure object-oriented programming language that also provides support to the functional programming approach. There is no concept of primitive data as everything is an object in Scala.

Scala has a rich set of collection libraries. Collections are containers of things. Those containers can be sequenced, linear packs of items like List, Tuple, Option, Map, etc. The collections may have an arbitrary number of elements or be bounded to zero or one element

Key takeaways

By the end of this article we will have coved:

• a brief introduction to Scala programming language.
• understand Scala collection flamework.
• Mutable & Immutable Collections
• String & Lazy Collection in Scala.
• A look into some Scala REPL example for a better understanding.

Article quality

I checked the section database and found that no article has been written in the Scala programming language. To make my article unique, I will give an overview of Scala's introduction, explain Scala Collections in detail, and finally look into some Scala REPL examples to better understand a beginner.

Sounds like a helpful topic - let's please be sure it adds value beyond what is in any official docs and/or what is covered in other blog sites. (the articles should go beyond a basic explanation - and it is always best to reference any EngEd article and build upon it). @carteblanchemunene
