Different results using Lists & tuples

[Mikael Karlsson]

Same problem as before Jilani,
lists and strings are the same in erlang, 
for lists with values < 255. 
Use io:format("~w~n",[Yourlist])

1> A=[64,71,53,67,55,58,77,56,51,76,68].
"@G5C7:M83LD"
2> B={64,71,53,67,55,58,77,56,51,76,68}.
{64,71,53,67,55,58,77,56,51,76,68}
3> io:format("~w~n",[A]).
[64,71,53,67,55,58,77,56,51,76,68]
ok
4> io:format("~p~n",[A]).
"@G5C7:M83LD"
ok
