A couple of thoughts on functional programming
in general and on F# and Erlang in particular
Erlang - is it worth it?I read Armstrong's
Erlang thesis and other Erlang related material with great interest. After all
Erlang claims some very compelling architectural benefits in the areas of scalability
and availability. However one thing that prevents me from digging too deep into
it is the utter ugliness of the language vs. for example, ruby
which is very compelling.
i also tend to agree...
