Erlang is gaining widespread adoption with the advent of multi-core processors and their new scalable approach to concurrency. With this guide you'll learn how to write complex concurrent programs in Erlang, regardless of your programming background or experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by leaders of the international Erlang community -- and based on their training material -- \u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eErlang Programming\u003c\/span\u003e focuses on the language's syntax and semantics, and explains pattern matching, proper lists, recursion, debugging, networking, and concurrency.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book helps you:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnderstand the strengths of Erlang and why its designers included specific features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLearn the concepts behind concurrency and Erlang's way of handling it\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWrite efficient Erlang programs while keeping code neat and readable\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDiscover how Erlang fills the requirements for distributed systems\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdd simple graphical user interfaces with little effort\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLearn Erlang's tracing mechanisms for debugging concurrent and distributed systems\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUse the built-in Mnesia database and other table storage features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eErlang Programming\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e provides exercises at the end of each chapter and simple examples throughout the book.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47458694922402,"sku":null,"price":240.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/916XpeWsfOL._SL1500.jpg?v=1784785692","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/erlang-programming-a-concurrent-approach-to-software-development-by-francesco-cesarini-simon-thompson","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
