I thought Erlang was quite old?
- wcummings 12y agoOlder than Perl, Python and Ruby, at least
- rdtsc 12y agoIt is pretty old and that's what makes it great!
- ghayes 12y agoErlang dates back to Ericsson's CSLab in 1986. It's explained in good detail in this thesis by Joe Armstrong[0]. From that paper, the first significant production use came in 1995 with the Ericsson AXD301 switch.
