I've been tinkering with Elixir for the last few weeks. I just came across this succinct combinations algorithm in Erlang, which I tried rewriting in Elixir but got stuck. Erlang version: comb(0,_) -> [[]]; comb(_,[]) -> []; comb(N,[H|T]) -> [[H|L] || L <- comb(N-1,T)]++comb(N,T). Elixir version I came up with...
erlang
I wrote a program in erlang (Just for learning it). This is a part of my code: test(X, Y) -> if X == 0 -> -1; Y == 0 -> -2 end, 2 * Y. I don't receive compile error. But when X and Y (both of them) are nonzero,...

What I am trying to do is mochijson2:decode(Ccode) generates any exception or error, program execution should not stop and case branch {error, Reason} should get executed. But when I am trying to get it implemented, it generates error at first line while checking and code doesn't continue execution for lines...

I'm trying to write a program that collects all Pythagorean triples equal to a given number; for example, calling main(12) should return [{3,4,5}]. But when I run my code, the answer is []. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? -module(triples). -export([main/1]). t1(A, B, C) -> {A-2*B+2*C, 2*A-B+2*C,...

Windows 7 x64, Erlang-OTP 17.

erlang
I am trying to force UTF-8 like this: to_utf8(X) when is_list(X) -> unicode:characters_to_binary(X, utf8); to_utf8(X) when is_binary(X) -> to_utf8(binary_to_list(X)); to_utf8(X) -> X. And testing it like this: <<"é"/utf8>> = to_utf8(<<"é">>), <<"Ø"/utf8>> = to_utf8(<<"Ø">>), <<"œ"/utf8>> = to_utf8(<<"œ">>), When using R16B03 everything works fine. However after upgrading to Erlang 17.5, the function...
