> Pretty much anything I've written over the last 30 years, the main purpose was to do I/O, it doesn't matter whether it's disk, network, or display. Erlang is a strictly (?) a functional language, and the reason why it was invented was to do network-y stuff in the telco space. So I'm not sure why I/O and functional programming would be opposed to each other like you imply. |

First and foremost Erlang is a pragmatic programming language :)
