====Setting Up The Scala EnvironmentFor Spark====To run an a stand alone application on windows, using the Scala IDE, you need to create a Marven project. You do this by clicking File > new > Project > Marven Project. Once the project is created, to use Scala instead of Java, the name of your source file should be refacotred refactored from src/main/java to src/main/scala.
From here you need to edit the pom.xml file to include Spark.
