A programming language gives programmers a way of modelling and expressing a computer program. Different programming languages are based on different ideas about how one thinks about computer programs.

This subject introduces students to the paradigms behind advanced programming languages that are used by many of the world's leading software companies. The unit is taught predominantly using Scala, as a mixed-paradigm language that allows many concepts to be introduced.

The subject introduces modern functional programming, different type systems, and techniques for asynchronous, streaming, and reactive programming. These techniques are useful at a wide spectrum of scales - from making small problems simple, to modern event-based web systems, to "fast data" systems that process large flows of asynchronous data.
