The document discusses Erlang, a programming language developed for concurrent and distributed systems, emphasizing its functional programming features, fault tolerance, and lightweight process management. It also mentions the Erlang standard libraries, the OTP virtual machine, and various dialects such as LFE and Elixir that enhance its functionality. Resources for learning Erlang and its applications are provided, along with a personal introduction by Felipe Mamud.

3. Erlang and OTP in Action (LOGAN, 2011; MERRIT, 2011; CARLSSON, 2011)
“Functional programming and the mindset that it
teaches you are a natural match to the problems
encountered in concurrent and distributed
programming [...]”

4. Ericsson language
● telephony switches problem
● 1986; 30 years ago
● dynamic; strong typing; funcional; fault-
tolerant;
● lightweight processes
● message passing concurrent paradigm
Agner Krarup Erlang was a Danish
mathematician, statistician and
engineer.

5. Erlang’s world set of Erlang libraries and
design principles providing
middle-ware to develop
these systems. It includes
its own distributed
database, applications to
interface towards other
languages, debugging and
release handling tools.
OTP
virtual machine where all
Erlang code is executed
aka emulator
.beam files
BEAM
Erlang Runtime System
where the BEAM, kernel
and standard libraries
amongst others are
included
ERTS
programming language
dynamic & strong typing
funcional & fault-tolerant

6. Who uses?

7. Which projects?

8. Polemical stuffs
● The Prolog syntax based dillemma;
● There are not unique statement terminators; instead it
there is Period (.), Semicolon (;), colon (,);
● There is no if… then… else… statement;
● String == List of Integers;
● Records are a compile time feature.

9. Let's crash code!

10. Another flavors
LFE - Lisp Flavored Erlang
● functional, concurrent, general-purpose
programming language
● Lisp dialect
http://lfe.io

11. Another flavors
● A dynamic programming language that compiles to
bytecode for the Erlang VM;
● syntax improvement (Ruby & Python based);
● improvement on current tools;
● metaprogramming;
● method dispatch;
● protocols;
