|
Authors Simon St. Laurent and J. David Eisenberg show you how to write simple |
|
Elixir programs by teaching you one skill at a time. You'll learn about |
|
pattern matching, recursion, message passing, process-oriented programming, |
|
and establishing pathways for data rather than telling it where to go. By the |
|
end of your journey, you'll understand why Elixir is ideal for concurrency and |
|
resilience.</p> |

<p>In a way, this is an "Introducing" book, so one shouldn't expect some deep |
|
knowledge about the language after reading it. But also, sometimes it feels a |
|
bit too "shallow" to gather some proper understanding of the language. </p> |
|
<p>One thing that kept bugging me was the fact that code kept changing: Not in |
|
the "going forward" kind of change, which is good, explain the basic, then |
|
start adding more complex/shorter solutions, but "let me bend this to another |
|
direction and completely ignore that direction later".</p> |
|
<p>But to get a "feeling" of the language, it is a good book.</p> |
