% Warming the engine for Erlang
% This Erlang module starts a clock under a registered process name

-module(clock).
-export([start/2, stop/0]).

% What this does is register the current process with the atom clock
% And the process which is registered is a spawned fun (fun is an anonymous function, similar to 
% a block in Ruby) which calls the tick function.
start(Time, Fun) ->

% Example of Erlang guards
-module(double).
-export([double/1]).

%% If guard expressions are separated by a comma, it means AND.
%% If guard expressions are separated by a semi-colon, it means OR.
double(X) when X > 0; X < 0 -> X * 2;
% If a function has multiple lines, each line (except the last), must be 
% terminated by a comma
double(X) when X =:= 0 -> io:format("Trying to double a zero homie?~n"),

% My attempt to document all the Erlang-isms that I come across
% mostly from the wonderful book by Joe Armstrong (which I highly recommend)

% Extracting values from tuples
Point = {point, 10, 45}.
{point, X, Y} = Point.
X. % Will return 10
Y. % Will return 45.

% Extracting elements from a list
