Scala
From EDM2
Scala is an open source, strongly typed static object-oriented programming language implemented in Java, it has some functional programming features but is mostly reminiscent of Java itself and is commonly advocated and used by Java users as a sort of abstraction. The functional features and a few other ideas are taken from the Funnel programming language.
Please note that there is another and older programming language called Scala that is or was a part of the SCALA multimedia/animation package.
