384 |
// run Scala on the commandline. There are also at least

385 |
// four IDEs you can use with Scala:

// There is also Scala support in the Atom editor, but my
|
|
420 |
// experience is mixed. People also use Scala with Vim and Jedit.
|
124
|
421 |
// Finally there is an online editor specifically designed for
|
|
422 |
// running Scala applications (but do not blame mne if you lose all

// All of the IDEs above support a REPL for Scala. Some of them have
|
|
430 |
// the very nifty feature of a Scala Worksheet -- you just save your
|
|
431 |
// file and it will be automatically evaluated and the result pasted
|
|
432 |
// into your file. However, this way of writing Scala code never worked
|
|
433 |
// for me. I just use the REPL.
