[PLUG] Question about erlang presentation


Toby:

I remember at least 2 of my questions regarding your Erlang
presentation:

You said that = was in reality a binding instead of an assignment.
I'm not sure I understand.  Are you saying that in erlang this
statement:

Var = 2 + 2

puts something besides the number 4 into Var?

Also, you referred to a specific type of recursion, tail or tail-end
recursion,that I had not heard of.  I found it on Wikipedia so I
_believe_ I now understand it (heh!)

Thanks again for a very interesting presentation.

Eric
