Scala is described as a general-use language that is concise and elegant. Scala is an extension of the Java language and can call upon Java libraries. Its syntax is very similar as well.
We now go over the steps to install the Scala engine and run a Scala script.
The Scala engine implementation is immature. There may be better installations available for non-Windows environments, but for Windows I followed the following instructions, where someone had built a version of the Scala engine for Windows that you can add to your environment.
At the bottom of this issue on the Jupyter Scala board at https://github.com/jupyter-scala/jupyter-scala/issues/108, there is a link to the code that you can use. At the bottom of that issue is the actual link: https://github.com/jupyter-scala/jupyter-scala/issues/1#issuecomment-315643483. Here, someone has set up a Scala engine for Windows to download at https://github.com/rvilla87/Big-Data/raw...
