Scalacaster is a collection of purely functional algorithms and data structures implemented in Scala, meant to be read rather than executed. It covers lists, queues, heaps, trees, and graphs with techniques from Okasaki-style functional programming.
Use cases
- learn purely functional data structures in scala
- study okasaki-style persistent data structure implementations
- read annotated source code for heaps and red-black trees
- understand functional graph algorithms in scala
- reference for functional programming interview prep
When to choose
- you want to study elegant functional implementations of classic data structures
- you are learning Scala through well-commented algorithm code
- you need a reference for persistent heaps, trees, and graphs
When to avoid
- you need a production-ready library to add as a dependency
- you need executable, tested code for a project
- you need imperative or mutable data structure implementations
