It did however take me more then a minute but that was because I had to install Erlang first. Ain't Linux great if you have your package manager setup right you can read this article, install some of the required software, and test it out all in a matter of minutes. Let's see someone get that done in less then ten minutes under windows ;D I definitely am enthused about this Erlang I was considering Lisp but think Erlang is a better choice.

Ora mi incuriosisci con l’erlang, e dire che dovevo studiarmi già apl e lisp…

You did know you specified the command line incorrectly, right or was that also part of the test? ;D Funny yes indeed lots of errors but simple enough to deal with even for someone even running Erlang for the first time to deal with ;D

I think you're missing an underscore in there i.e.: hello:hello_world(). thanks again for the article, I'm looking forward to seeing more :) Michael Hey, thanks for the article – nice to see more entry-level articles about Erlang :)

First is the notion of functional programing. Second is the "concurrent" aspect. Each of these ideas have precious little "foo made easy" docs. Both these are gonna cause offense to Object Nazis; however, both these ideas seems to have powerful traction with the notion of business applications. It some sense, I'd say this is Cobol 2.0 - the bastard child. Seriously, these functional languages make way more sense in the business world than any object oriented concepts. I'm so glad that none seems to acknowledge the functional alternative. It validatea the idea that my professor really did have his head where the sun don't shine. I wish there was more talk about applying erlang to more typical business applications. For example, get a request, log the input, do the action, log the response, send the response. Erlang does have a hump on its syntax. I would be real hot to see some merging of Haskel, R and Erlang - of course that is both syntax and libraries. As a user, I would rather stuff just work. I don't wanna learn more syntax, but perhaps I'm mal adjusted. There are two things that make erlang fun – and by fun I really mean a complete pain in my ass.
