QCon London: Joe Armstrong on Getting Started with Erlang
Getting Started with Erlang
Do you want to write concurrent programs that just run faster as you
run on more cores? - Do you want to write fault-tolerant applications
that run forever?
Of course you do!
Getting started with Erlang is a hands-on tutorial to get you started
with this.By the time the tutorial is over your brain should be spinning with
new ideas, you'll have written several Erlang programs and your
fingers will itch to write more Erlang programs.
This is not an overview course for managers, it's a hands-on hacking
course for programmers.
We'll assume no previous knowledge of functional or concurrent
programming but start off at a leisurely tempo banging the fundamental
stuff into your brains. Then we'll speed up (sadistic grin).
You'll learn how to write concurrent, fault-tolerant, distributed soft
real-time programs ...
