Regarding Cigarette Smoker's problem

[Richard O'Keefe]

Did you try a web search for
Cigarette Smokers problem solved in Erlang
If not, why not?

One fairly obvious approach is for the smokers
to register themselves, one as 'tobacco', one as
'paper', and one as 'matches'.
Then
  arbiter() ->
     select a random element of [tobacco,paper,matches] as Who,
     Who!go,
     arbiter().

Another approach would be for the smokers to register
themselves with the arbiter in a startup phase.

Let me put it this way.
Try to make your code so simple and obvious that it
is hard to get wrong.
Then find the mistakes.
