Scala still has several differences to Java including a stronger type system, traits, pattern matching, and implicits (love them or hate them.) Java is definitely closing the gap on some of the functional aspects though.

- goralph 10y agoHigher kinded types is a feature that sets the languages apart and is what allows for some very powerful polymorphic code to be written in Scala.
