Erlang并发编程之消息传递

下面是erlang教程的一份代码，其中创建了两个进程，其中一个重复向另一个发送消息。

module(tut15).
-export([start/0, ping/2, pong/0]).
ping(0, Pong_PID) ->
    Pong_PID ! finished,
    io:format("ping finished~n", []);
ping(N, Pong_PID) ->
    Pong_PID ! {ping, self()},
    receive
        pong ->
            io:format("Ping received pong~n", [])
    end,
    ping(N - 1, Pong_PID).
pong() ->
    receive
        finished ->
            io:format("Pong finished~n", []);
        {ping, Ping_PID} ->
            io:format("Pong received ping~n", []),
            Ping_PID ! pong,
            pong()
    end.
start() ->
    Pong_PID = spawn(tut15, pong, []),
    spawn(tut15, ping, [3, Pong_PID]).  

下面是解析：

-module(tut4). %模块名字为tut4
-export([start/0,ping/2,pong/0]). %导出函数 start函数参数0个  ping函数参数2个 pong函数参数0个

ping(0
