Version 2.9 of the Scala language for the JVM.
Version 2.9 included many changes, notably the introduction of parallel collections.
Scala is a general purpose programming language principally targeting the Java Virtual Machine. Designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way, it fuses both imperative and functional programming styles. Its key features are: statically typed; advanced type-system with type inference; function types; pattern-matching; implicit parameters and conversions; operator overloading; full interop with Java.
