10. scala-miniboxing.org @miniboxing Motivation Motivation val x = (x: Int) => x
11. scala-miniboxing.org @miniboxing Motivation Motivation val x = (x: Int) => x Function syntax is sugar for anonymous classes extending FunctionX traits (or for Java8 lambdas)
12. scala-miniboxing.org @miniboxing Motivation Motivation val x = (x: Int) => x Extending Function1 behavior? Sure, add an implicit. Function syntax is sugar for anonymous classes extending FunctionX traits (or for Java8 lambdas)
13. scala-miniboxing.org @miniboxing Motivation Motivation val x = (x: Int) => x Extending Function1 behavior? Sure, add an implicit. Changing behavior (e.g. PartialFunction)? This is what we'll talk about today. Function syntax is sugar for anonymous classes extending FunctionX traits (or for Java8 lambdas)
