[erlang-questions] is there "return" in Erlang.

[黃耀賢 (Yau-Hsien Huang)]

getA(), getB(), doSomeThing(...), and doThings() are other functions to be
implemented.

if structure is provided in Erlang:

   if
        test ->  calculation ;
        test ->  calculation ;
        ...
        test -> calculation
   end

It need not write `return' in Erlang. A function returns a value by the last
statement/
clause in a function.

In general, `void judge()' has a structure like:

    judge() ->
       A = getA(),
       B = getB(),
       if
            A == CONF1 -> doSomeThing(A) ;
            B == CONF2 -> doSomeThing(B) ;
            true -> doThings()
       end.
