The possibility to develop code in Scala and seamlessly integrate it as part of code written in Java allows us to enjoy the power of Scala without throwing away software systems that were already developed in Java. In addition, once specific modules are written in Scala we can at any time compile those modules into [...]

The C# programming language allows us to write code that creates new methods during its execution. These methods are known as dynamic functions, and once created we can use delegates to treat them just as any other ordinary function.
The following video clip explains how to use the System.Reflection.Emit classes in order to create a new simple dynamic [...]
When a specific method throws an Exception that isn’t handheld the exception is passed over to the method from which that specific method was called.
