A collection of small Erlang snippets and modules
This repository of Erlang code snippets is something I'm going to write while I'm in the process of learning Erlang, OTP and some other programming languages that run on the Erlang Vm (like Elixir).
For that I am reading several Erlang books, upgrading my Emacs environment to better support the languages and tools I use (see PEL - Pragmatic Environment Library, writing on Erlang here and in sibling projects About Erlang and development on macOS. I'm also taking online courses (everything goes online these days...)..
The courses I'm taking is the Concurrent Programming in Erlang online course provided by the University of Kent and FutureLearn.
The list of exercises in this course I've done so far are listed here:
- Exercise 1: Palindrome Checking Server
- Exercise 2: Working with the mailbox
- Exercise 3: Frequency Server
- Exercise 4: Frequency Server with a Functional Interface
I enjoy reading Erlang and OTP in Action. Written in 2010, it describes the OTP facilities available at that time. It has several examples as well. I'm planning to implement several of the examples provided in the book and check what has changed in the last 10 years.
This includes the following:
