SUMMARY:Scala Implicit
DESCRIPTION:This time we are going to be talking about Scala Implicits. This is a construct of great confusion for Scala newcomers.

Nicolas has been using Scala for 4 years in different environments\, from Big Data with Apache Spark to embedded devices for Government satellites.\nNicolas also has experience in other languages and technologies since he used C# and F# for more he wants to admit.\nUltimately\, Nicolas works at PLXIS\, where Test Driven Development (TDD) is a most given him a different perspective about how systems are designed and implemented with extremely high quality. He strongly recommends applying at PLXIS. PLXIS is hiring!
