##Java 8 vs. Scala Workshop

This workshop contains exercises to get familiar with new features in Java 8, including default methods in interfaces, functional interfaces, lambdas, and streams. The workshop contains similar exercises for Scala, where some of the problems can be solved using type classes and traits.

Slides for the workshop are located in the slides folder of the project.
