Hi.
Well guys, I'm struggling with Erlang syntax.
Does Erlang has line terminators like C++ or Java?
Consider this sinppet:
----------
convert_list_to_c([{Name, {f, F}} | Rest]) ->
Converted_City = {Name, {c, (F -32)* 5 / 9}},
[Converted_City | convert_list_to_c(Rest)];
----------
Why there is a comma after {Name, {c, (F -32)* 5 / 9}} ?
Another snippet and the same question:
----------
format_temps(List_of_cities) ->
Converted_List = convert_list_to_c(List_of_cities),
print_temp(Converted_List).
----------
Another one:
----------
foreach(Fun, [First|Rest]) ->
Fun(First),
foreach(Fun, Rest);
----------
How to define blocks? using { } for example ? or by using indentation (aka Python) ?
All these snippets are from Erlang docs.
Thanks.
