Ascii Table
ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Computers can only understand numbers, so an ASCII code is the numerical representation of a character such as 'a' or '@' or an action of some sort. ASCII was developed a long time ago and now the non-printing characters are rarely used for their original purpose.

scala
These are an adaptation of the Ninety-Nine Prolog Problems written by Werner Hett at the Berne University of Applied Sciences in Berne, Switzerland. I ( Phil Gold ) have altered them to be more amenable to programming in Scala. Feedback is appreciated , particularly on anything marked TODO. The problems have different levels of difficulty. Those marked with a single asterisk (*) are easy. If you have successfully solved the preceeding problems you should be able to solve them within a few (say 15) minutes.

Introduction to Scala
Last Tuesday I gave a ‘introduction to Scala’ presentation during the monthly ‘Tech Tuesday’ at Ebay/Marktplaats. After going through the slides I did some live test driven development. I think I managed to get some more people interested!Javadoc

In this post I want to show a few of the upcoming features in specs2-1.9 and also take a step back on how specs2 features and implementation unfolded since I started the project one year ago. Why would you want to rewrite from scratch? Good question, that seems to be very masochistic :-). Not only because of the sheer amount of features to re-implement but more importantly because of the difficulty to move users to a new version. I explained in details the reasons why I thought the rewrite was necessary, how it would benefit users and how to migrate in a previous blog post .
