Java Posse #111 - Roundup 07 Session - Whither Java?

Roundup 2007 Session - Whither Java? Fully formatted shownotes can always be found at http://javaposse.com Recorded at the Java Posse Roundup 2007, this session examines what's next for Java, but not necessarily in the "Beyond Java" sense of everything going Ruby. In fact, the discussion focuses more on the switch to a more functional view of programming, but within the confines of a practical application language (i.e. not one that requires you to do everything in a functional way). This session was convened by Joel Neely. The Haskell functional programming language http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskell Fibonacci in Haskellhttp://www.cubbi.org/serious/fibonacci/haskell.html Currying functionshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currying Scala (with functional programming features)http://www.scala-lang.org/ Functional Programming from Wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_programming Fortresshttp://research.sun.com/projects/plrg/ Thanks Libsyn.com - http://www.libsyn.com - for hosting and bandwidth Brice Ruth and Webprojkt.com - http://webprojkt.com - for our archives site - http://archives.javaposse.com Feedburner.com - http://www.feedburner.com - for feed redirect Kirsty Doherty, Oliver Widder and Jeff Tyson for Java Posse artwork Brian Ehmann - the Java Posse intern Craig Muth for maintaining the Java Posse Memorizable site - http://memorizable.org/Java_Posse Theme Music: Opening - "Java" the parody song Copyright 1997 Broken Records and Marjorie Music Publ.
