My teammate also say I should try to write more function.
It sounds good!
And I also hear Erlang don't have any way to return immediately.  
I have some idea to refact it now, thanks!

There general strategy is to use more functions or have a flat case on a tuple of comparisons (if that can be done sensibly). You could also use exceptions for flow control, but then you have two problems :)

When in other language.We can use like:
 example(Something){

But in Erlang.I have to write like:
 example(Something) ->
    if
        Something == false ->
             false;
        true ->
            %do something here
     end.




That's could make the multiple nested like:
 example(Something) ->
    if
        Something == false ->
             false;
        true ->
            if
                Otherthing == false ->
                     false
                true ->
                    %do something here
     end.


Some code could make 5 or more nested in it.
 Is there any idea to make short circuit to reduce of the nested?
