What book would you recommend for Erlang? (I've done quite a bit of functional programming, but not exactly lately.)
- munctional 17y agoThe referenced book is THE book. It was an easy read for someone who had no functional programming experience. :) http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Erlang-Software-Concurrent-World/dp/193435600X/ http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Erlang-Software-Concurrent...
- justinlilly 17y agoI've been reading through the oreilly book, Erlang Programming. Its good (like all Oreilly titles) though I'm only into chapter 6. I'd definitely suggest picking it up.
- evgen 17y agoJoe Armstrong's book is probably the best one to start with. It gives you a step-by-step learning process that will get you up and running with Erlang in short order. Once you are finished with it pick up Erlang Programming by Cesarini and Thompson; this book covers a lot of the same territory but goes a bit deeper into some areas that are missing from Armstrong's book (e.g. debugging & tracing, etc.)
