I have been reading http://www.coli.uni-saarland.de/~kris/learn-prolog-now/ and have found it fascinating to see where things started off in Erlang.

I probably typify the curious Java/C programmer who is newly intrigued by Erlang. I think a few things are under-emphasized in everything I have read from any source:<BR/><BR/>- The FSM/Tail recursion link.

I am so glad that you have written this book, and in doing so that you have found a new "voice" which will be comfortable to those learning the language for the first time. As an aside, I *am* exactly your target audience; an experienced programmer of Perl, Python, Java/JEE and now Ruby (and Rails) who has been tyre-kicking dynamic languages like Haskell, Lisp Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02394231845755158428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246027334551923738.post-67332609259012692452007-03-30T14:26:00.000-07:002007-03-30T14:26:00.000-07:00any idea of when we can expect the next installati...any idea of when we can expect the next installation of the book Joe?<BR/><BR/>I've just finished reading your 'Making Reliable Distributed Systems' thesis and I'm feeling very inspired. really loved your idea of having "magic" processes for dealing with things like spawn - it just feels clean and elegant. do you have plans to expand on this further?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16190134233856870776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5246027334551923738.post-42863244944702214942007-03-15T17:27:00.000-07:002007-03-15T17:27:00.000-07:00and I've just finished reading that book... and wh...and I've just finished reading that book... and what a book it was!<BR/><BR/>On on hand I feel really rather pleased that there's finally a wonderfully straight forward introduction to Erlang that any programmer can understand.
