LambdaConf 2015 - Computation Expressions in Scala   Jean Rémi Desjardins
Channel: Confreaks
Date: 2015-12-31

Computation Expressions are a generalization of do-notation and Idiom Brackets. They provide a single notation that uses the least powerful abstraction in order to translate sugared code into de-sugared code in the most flexible way possible. I will present a project I have been working on to implement computation expressions in Scala. In particular, I will show how this notation helps write asynchronous code with very little cognitive overhead.
