• THIS IS CHEATING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• (CompileError) temp.ex:7: undefined function <-/2, the code is not working. My guess is also like Imran below that the parent <- {x, y, z} is deprecated?

  Is there more official tutorials that are update? I like the way it's handling concurrent computations. But to solve web problems I would now still turn back to RoR and math problems to Python and Matlab. Since there are simply way more resources to rely on.

• Well, Its not simple to do this in other languages. But it's easier and cleaner in Erlang.

• correct me if I'm wrong but parent <- {x, y, z} is deprecated right?

• Through what magic do the results come back in the correct order ?

• I have no idea what just happened.

• I can't believe Elixir is the Next Big Thing in functional programming with a logo like that, sorry.

• Really, it's suspect because it comes from a Ruby/Rails guy? Ruby/Rails guys are software craftsman as much as anyone else, especially someone like Jose.

• I like the very last section "Why should you care" in which Dave explains the reasons why people should learn and apply functional programming languages (for me it'd be Clojure or Scala) to problems that are use cases for the paradigm, mainly developing multithreaded applications. I'm not yet convinced to give Elixir a try.

• Thank you for clarification.
