Groovy ,Java and Slurper

Today I wrote my first meaningful program in Groovy-

It was a small script to extract some information from a XML

It took me the same time to learn Groovy and code this script- the same time it would have taken me to do it in Java.

The brevity of the program was breathtaking. Few lines of code- and I was on the way slurping away the XML.

Another first…

Being an OOP nut- its been ages since I have written a single line of code- outside a class. So today- I broke another barrier.
