Ah, one of the fun things about the title for our book, Atomic Scala, is that I smile whenever I get to say that I’m “splitting an atom”. For one thing, it’s fun to say. For another, it means that we’re simplifying the concepts in the book even further.

You can read about how I’m splitting Values and Data Types into 2 atoms, and how that might mean including the content from Type Inference earlier in the book.
