• No primitive types, everything is an object
• No semicolon
• Object is a singleton
• Methods can be defined private or protected. If no modifer is given, method is public.
• No static methods

object HelloWorld {
  def main(args: Array[String]) {
    println("Hello, world!")
  }
}

if/else-Constructs have a return value

for (i <- 1 to 10) println(i)

Implizites break

val iValue = 3
iValue match{
  case 1 => println("one")
  case _ => println("empty")
}

There are no static methods/vars in scala and singleton objects can't be constructed using a constructor with new. <code> object ScalaObject {

val b = 5

def test(a: Double) : Double = {
  3.* + b 
}

}
