Tutorial

[François-Denis Gonthier]

Good job.

This tutorial would have been so welcome when I started playing with Erlang
few months ago.  :)

sadly, I'm rarely take time to carefully read things I've printed of the net
so I'm not really the kind of guy that will make useful suggestions or error
reports.  I have nonetheless noticed something that might be a typo in the
code.

in module tut18, shouldn't the start function read:

start(Ping_Node) ->
	register(pong, spawn(tut18, pong, [])),
	spawn(Ping_Node, tut17, ping, [3, node()]).

I have written a tutorial covering most of the basics of Erlang.
OTP is not covered.

This is not a specification of Erlang, rather a text which will
hopefully help to get people started. A specification is being
written separately (by Gunnila Arendt) and when this is ready,
this tutorial I hope to addend the tutorial to cross reference
the spec.

The tutorial is available at:

http://www.erlang.org/doc/misc/tut.txt

and is a plain text file. All the example programs can be copy / pasted
from this files and be compiled and run.

What I would like now are comments, errata and sugestions for
improvements.
