About Pizza

Pizza was created in 1997 by Martin Odersky and his team to experiment with adding functional programming features to Java. It aimed to integrate concepts like generics, first-class functions, and pattern matching into the Java language, demonstrating how these features could enhance Java's capabilities.

Pizza's strengths included its ability to integrate functional programming features into Java, enhancing code expressiveness and conciseness. Its weaknesses were complexity and limited adoption due to being an experimental language. Competitors included other languages with functional programming capabilities, such as Scala and Kotlin.
