XXIst Century DateTime

@ignasi35
• Date is DEAD (my opinion)
• Calendar is DEAD (my opinion)
!
! • DEAD is 57005 (that’s a fact)

@ignasi35
• Clock
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• Duration vs Period
• ZonedDateTime
! • Enum.Month
• Enum.DayOfWeek

@ignasi35
Enum.Month
! • Not just JAN, FEB, MAR
• Full arithmetic
• plus(long months)
• firstDayOfYear(boolean leapYear)
• length(boolean leapYear)
• …

@ignasi35
• Clock
• replace your sys.currentTimeMillis
• allows testing
• Instant/now
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• ZonedDateTime

@ignasi35
• Clock
• LocalDate
• a date
• no TimeZone
• birth date, end of war, man on moon,…
• LocalDateTime
• ZonedDateTime

@ignasi35
• Clock
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• an hour of the day
• noon
• 9am
• ZonedDateTime

@ignasi35
• Clock
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• Duration: 365*24*60*60*1000
• Period: 1 year (not exactly 365 days)
• Duration (Time) vs Period (Date)
• ZonedDateTime

@ignasi35
• Clock
• LocalDate
• LocalDateTime
• ZonedDateTime (not an Instant!!)
• Immutable
• nanosecond detail
• Normal, Gap, Overlap

ADT

@ignasi35
filter: applies predicate and Returns input or None
map: converts content
fold: returns Some(content) or Some(default)
flatMap: see list
get: returns content or throws Exception
getOrElse: returns content or defaultValue

Future (aka

@ignasi35
Future (aka CF, aka
CompletableFuture)
!
[FAIL] Does not use map, flatMap, filter.
!
[PASS] CF implemented ADT
!
[FAIL] Because Supplier, Consumer, Function,
Bifuction, … CF’s API sucks.

@ignasi35
Future
filter: creates new future applying Predicate
map: converts content if success. New Future
fold: n/a
flatMap: see list
andThen: chains this Future’s content into a Consumer
onSuccess/onFailure: callbacks
recover: equivalent to map() but applied only on Fail

Maybe simulates nullable

Exceptions still fuck up your day

@ignasi35
Try
Simulates a computation that:

succeeded
or
threw exception
