Erlang編程（簡體書）

《Erlang編程(影印版)》深入介紹了Erlang，這是一門滿足高并發、容錯和快速響應等苛刻要求的理想編程語言。隨著多核CPU以及與之俱來的新并發擴展方式嶄露頭角，Erlang正在獲得更廣泛的接受和應用。只要擁有這本指南，無論此前的編程水平或經驗如何，你都將學會用Erlang編寫復雜的并發程序。
《Erlang編程》由Erlang國際社區的兩位領袖級人物基於他們的培訓教材撰寫，重點解析該語言的語法和語義，并詳細闡述模式匹配、嚴格列表(proper lists)、遞歸、調試、網絡與并發等重要概念的精髓要義。
《Erlang編程(影印版)》可以幫助你：理解并掌握Erlang的諸多強項，以及其設計者潛心設計的各種特性；學習并發背後的概念和Erlang相應的處理方法；編寫高效的Erlang程序，并且保持代碼整潔易讀；發現Erlang如何滿足分布式系統的需求；小試牛刀，添加簡單圖形用戶界面；學習Erlang的追蹤機制，用于調試并發和分布式系統；使用內嵌的Mnesia數據庫和其他表存儲特性。
無論你是新手還是富有經驗的Erlang開發者，《Erlang編程》都是案頭必備的重要參考資料。
