Fred Hébert
Erlang is the language of choice for programmers who want to write robust, concurrent applications, but its strange syntax and functional design can intimidate the uninitiated. Luckily, theres a new weapon in the battle against Erlang-phobia Learn You Some Erlang for Great Good!
Erlang maestro Fred Hebert starts slow and eases you into the basics Youll learn about Erlangs unorthodox syntax, its data structures, its type system (or lack thereof!), and basic functional programming techniques. Once youve wrapped your head around the simple stuff, youll tackle the real meat-and-potatoes of the language concurrency, distributed computing, hot code loading, and all the other dark magic that makes Erlang such a hot topic among todays savvy developers.
As you dive into Erlangs functional fantasy world, youll learn about
• Testing your applications with EUnit and Common Test
• Building and releasing your applications with the OTP framework
• Passing messages, raising errors, and starting/stopping processes over many nodes
• Storing and retrieving data using Mnesia and ETS
• Network programming with TCP, UDP, and the inet module
• The simple joys and potential pitfalls of writing distributed, concurrent applications
Packed with lighthearted illustrations and just the right mix of offbeat and practical example programs, Learn You Some Erlang for Great Good! is the perfect entry point into the sometimes-crazy, always-thrilling world of Erlang.
