The pattern matching binding (assignment) and function argument is the heart, meat, and soul of Erlang. As soon as you have fully grokked [H | T] = and f(A,B,C,D) -> blah, blah; f([]) -> different blah, blah. for example, almost all the rest is syntax with a bunch of added library functions which make the stated goals of the project seem almost like child's play! I really hope after we stress this it holds up to the buffeting we must give it in tests.
