Scala is a modern, multi-paradigm programming language that combines object-oriented and functional programming concepts. It runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and is designed to be concise, elegant, and type-safe. Scala is particularly well-suited for building scalable, distributed systems and is widely used in big data processing, especially with Apache Spark.
