+# HIGHLIGHTS
+
+- The functions `is_equal/2`, `map/2`, and `filtermap/2` have been added to the
+  modules `sets`, `ordsets`, and `gb_sets`.

+  Own Id: OTP-18622
+  Related Id(s): GH-7183, GH-7232
+
+- The compiler now emits nicer error message for function head mismatches. For
+  example, given:
+
+      a() -> ok;
+      a(_) -> error.
+
+  Erlang/OTP 26 and earlier would emit a diagnostic similar to:
+
+      t.erl:6:1: head mismatch
+      %    6| a(_) -> error.
+      %     | ^
+
+  while in Erlang/OTP 27 the diagnostic is similar to:
+
+      t.erl:6:1: head mismatch: function a with arities 0 and 1 is regarded as two distinct functions. Is the number of arguments incorrect or is the semicolon in a/0 unwanted?
+      %    6| a(_) -> error.
+      %     | ^
+
+  Own Id: OTP-18648
+  Related Id(s): PR-7383
+
+- The compiler will now merge consecutive updates of the same record.
+
+  As an example, the body of the following function will be combined into a
+  single tuple creation instruction:
+
+      -record(r, {a,b,c,d}).
+
+      update(Value) ->
+          R0 = #r{},
+          R1 = R0#r{a=Value},
+          R2 = R1#r{b=2},
+          R2#r{c=3}.

+- As announced in OTP 26.1, `0.0` is no longer considered equivalent to `-0.0`
+  when using the term equivalence operators (`=:=` and `=/=`).
+
+  The arithmetic equality operators (`==` and `/=`) and all relative
+  comparison operations still consider `0.0` equal to `-0.0`.

+  *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
+
+- The `erl` command now supports the `-S` flag, which is similar to the `-run`
+  flag, except that it will pass all arguments up to end of the command line to
+  the called function. (The `-run` flag will not pass arguments beginning with a
+  hyphen.) Another difference is that `-S` will always call a function with one
+  argument, passing an empty list if no arguments were given.

+- Triple-Quoted Strings has been implemented as per EEP 64. See String in the

+         a
+         b
+         c
+         """.
+      "a\nb\nc"
+
+  Adjacent string literals without intervening white space is now a syntax
+  error, to avoid possible confusion with triple-quoted strings. For example:
+
+      1> "abc""xyz".
+      "xyz".
+      * 1:6: adjacent string literals without intervening white space

+
+  *** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
+
+- Several new functions that accept funs have been added to module `timer`.
+
+  Functions `apply_after/2`, `apply_interval/2`, and `apply_repeatedly/2` accept
+  a 0-ary fun as the second argument, while functions `apply_after/3`,
+  `apply_interval/3`, and `apply_repeatedly/3` accept an n-ary fun as the second
+  and a list of n arguments for the fun as the third argument.

+
+- Sigils on string literals have been implemented as per EEP 66, that is:
+  binary and string sigils in verbatim and escape characters variants, as well
+  as a default (vanilla) Sigil. All for ordinary strings and for triple-quoted
+  strings (EEP 64). See Sigils in the Reference Manual.
+
+  Examples:
+
+      1> ~"Björn".
+      <<"Björn"/utf8>>
+      2> ~b"Björn".
+      <<"Björn"/utf8>>
+      3> ~S"\s*(\w+)".

+- Native coverage support has been implemented in the JIT. It will automatically
+  be used by the `cover` tool to reduce the execution overhead when running

+
+  There are also new APIs to support native coverage without using the `cover`

+  `line_coverage` option.
+
+  To enable native coverage in the runtime system, start it like so:

+- EEP-59 - Documentation Attributes has been implemented.
+
+  Documentation attributes can be used to document functions, types, callbacks,
+  and modules. The keyword `-moduledoc "Documentation here".` is used to
+  document modules, while `-doc "Documentation here".` can be used on top of
+  functions, types, and callbacks to document them, respectively.
+
+  - Types, callbacks, and function documentation can be set to `hidden` either
+    via `-doc false` or `-doc hidden`. When documentation attributes mark a type
+    as hidden, they will not be part of the documentation.
+  - The documentation from `moduledoc` and `doc` gets added by default to the
+    binary beam file, following the format of EEP-48.
+  - Using the compiler flag `warn_missing_doc` will raise a warning when doc.
+    attributes are missing in exported functions, types, and callbacks.
+  - `moduledoc`s and `doc`s may refer to external files to be embedded, such as
+    `-doc {file, "README.md"}.`, which refers to the file `README.md` found in
+    the current working directory.
+  - The compiler warns about exported functions whose specs refer to hidden
+    types. Thus, there will be warnings when a hidden type (meaning, the type is
+    not part of the documentation) gets used in an exported function.

+- New `ets` functions ets:first_lookup/1, ets:next_lookup/2,
+  ets:prev_lookup/2 and ets:last_lookup/1. Example: ets:next_lookup/1 is

+- The `maybe` expression is now enabled by default.
+
+  To use `maybe` as an atom, it needs to be single-quoted. Alternatively, the
+  `maybe` expression can be disabled by disabling the `maybe_expr` feature. That
+  can be done by placing the following the line at the beginning of an Erlang
+  source file:
+
+      -feature(maybe_expr, disable).
+
+  Another way to disable the `maybe_expr` feature is by passing the

+- Safe destructive update of tuples has been implemented in the compiler and
+  runtime system. This allows the VM to update tuples in-place when it is safe
+  to do so, thus improving performance by doing less copying but also by
+  producing less garbage.
+
+  Example:
+
+      -record(rec, {a,b,c}).
+
+      update(#rec{a=needs_update,b=N}=R0) ->
+          R = R0#rec{a=up_to_date},
+          if
+              N < 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=negative};
+              N == 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=zero};
+              N > 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=positive}
+          end.
+
+  The record updates in each of the three clauses of the `if` can safely be done
+  in-place, because variable `R` is not used again.

+- Safe destructive update of tuples has been implemented in the compiler and
+  runtime system. This allows the VM to update tuples in-place when it is safe
+  to do so, thus improving performance by doing less copying but also by
+  producing less garbage.
+
+  Example:
+
+      -record(rec, {a,b,c}).
+
+      update(#rec{a=needs_update,b=N}=R0) ->
+          R = R0#rec{a=up_to_date},
+          if
+              N < 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=negative};
+              N == 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=zero};
+              N > 0 ->
+                  R#rec{c=positive}
+          end.
+
+  The record updates in each of the three clauses of the `if` can safely be done
+  in-place, because variable `R` is not used again.

+

+- EEP-59 - Documentation Attributes has been implemented.
+
+  Documentation attributes can be used to document functions, types, callbacks,
+  and modules. The keyword `-moduledoc "Documentation here".` is used to
+  document modules, while `-doc "Documentation here".` can be used on top of
+  functions, types, and callbacks to document them, respectively.
+
+  - Types, callbacks, and function documentation can be set to `hidden` either
+    via `-doc false` or `-doc hidden`. When documentation attributes mark a type
+    as hidden, they will not be part of the documentation.
+  - The documentation from `moduledoc` and `doc` gets added by default to the
+    binary beam file, following the format of EEP-48.
+  - Using the compiler flag `warn_missing_doc` will raise a warning when doc.
+    attributes are missing in exported functions, types, and callbacks.
+  - `moduledoc`s and `doc`s may refer to external files to be embedded, such as
+    `-doc {file, "README.md"}.`, which refers to the file `README.md` found in
+    the current working directory.
+  - The compiler warns about exported functions whose specs refer to hidden
+    types. Thus, there will be warnings when a hidden type (meaning, the type is
+    not part of the documentation) gets used in an exported function.

+
+## Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
+
+- Dialyzer warnings due to type specs added in `dbg` have been eliminated.
+
+  Own Id: OTP-18860
+
+## Improvements and New Features
+
+- Triple-Quoted Strings has been implemented as per EEP 64. See String in the
+  Reference Manual.
+
+  Example:
+
+      1> """
+         a
+         b
+         c
+         """.
+      "a\nb\nc"
+
+  Adjacent string literals without intervening white space is now a syntax
+  error, to avoid possible confusion with triple-quoted strings. For example:
+
+      1> "abc""xyz".
+      "xyz".
+      * 1:6: adjacent string literals without intervening white space

+
+- There is a new tool `tprof`, which combines the functionality of `eprof`
+  and `cprof` under one interface. It also adds heap profiling.
+
+  Own Id: OTP-18756
+  Related Id(s): PR-6639
+
+- Native coverage support has been implemented in the JIT. It will automatically
+  be used by the `cover` tool to reduce the execution overhead when running
+  cover-compiled code.
+
+  There are also new APIs to support native coverage without using the `cover`
+  tool.
+
+  To instrument code for native coverage it must be compiled with the
+  `line_coverage` option.
+
+  To enable native coverage in the runtime system, start it like so:
+
+      $ erl +JPcover true
+
+  There are also the following new functions for supporting native coverage:
+
+  - code:coverage_support/0
+  - code:get_coverage/2
+  - code:reset_coverage/1
+  - code:get_coverage_mode/0
+  - code:get_coverage_mode/1
+  - code:set_coverage_mode/1
