[erlang-questions] Basic atom question

[Martin Hedberg]

Hello there 

Newbie wan Kenobi here again with a small question. :-) When the system restarts atoms are cleared but 
I wonder: Is it enough to restart the process that the atoms were declared in, to clear the memory from it? 

Best regards 

Martin

Hi there 

Have begun to take my first "baby steps" with Erlang (holding on to books and tutorials). 
I read about how to make macros in the language. However I wonder how I do if I want 
to have blank spaces in my commands? So I just can write, for example: "repeat 5 times". 

Hope you don't see me as a heretic if I want to HyperTalk-ificat Erlang a little bit. :-) 

I am very grateful for any help. 

Best regards 

Martin
