erlang 1:16.b.3-dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 source package in Ubuntu

 Open Source Erlang is a functional programming language designed at
 the Ericsson Computer Science Laboratory.
 .
 Some of Erlang main features are:
  * Clear declarative syntax and is largely free from side-effects;
  * Built-in support for real-time, concurrent and distributed programming;
  * Designed for development of robust and continuously operated programs;
  * Dynamic code replacement at runtime.
 .
 The Erlang distribution also includes OTP (Open Telecom Platform) which
 provides a rich set of libraries and applications.
 .
 This package is a dummy package which will install Erlang/OTP runtime,
 applications, sources, code examples and the Erlang editing mode for Emacs.

 Erlang applications executing either locally or on remote Erlang nodes.
 The process tree of an application can furthermore be monitored.

 support for ASN.1 in Erlang/OTP.

 This package contains the Erlang/OTP runtime implementation, which is

 and minimal set of Erlang applications:
  compiler - compiles Erlang code to byte-code;
  erts - the Erlang runtime system application;
  kernel - code necessary to run the Erlang runtime system itself;
  sasl - the system architecture support libraries application;
  stdlib - modules for manipulating lists, strings, files etc.

 Common Test is a portable application for automated testing. It is
 suitable for black-box testing of target systems of any type (i.e.
 not necessarily implemented in Erlang), as well as for white-box
 testing of Erlang/OTP programs. Black-box testing is performed via
 standard interfaces (such as SNMP, HTTP, Corba, Telnet, etc) and,
 if required, via user specific interfaces (often called test ports).
 White-box testing of Erlang/OTP programs is easily accomplished by
 calling the target API functions directly from the test case functions.
 Common Test also integrates usage of the OTP cover tool for code
 coverage analysis of Erlang/OTP programs.

 windowing system. It uses Tk widgets for visualization.

 The IC application is an Erlang implementation of an IDL (CORBA Interface
 Definition Language) compiler. Depending on the choice of back-end the
 code will map to Erlang, C, or Java. The compiler generates client stubs
 and server skeletons.
