2017-01-11Say that features after R13A are mentioned in the textBjörn Gustavsson
The text mentions any changes that occurred in R7A and later. Change that to only mention changes that occurred after R12B.
2017-01-10Remove mention of R12BBjörn Gustavsson
Also don't say that there are no plans to make sharing-preserving copying default; it has been seriously suggested.

2017-01-10Don't mention "tuple funs" at allBjörn Gustavsson

2016-12-20erts: Correct memory footprint for mapsSverker Eriksson
Small map was wrong as we should include our own top Eterm and exclude them for keys and values. Large maps was wrong as it described the theoretical minimum of a full tree, which does not happen in reality.

Thanks to Joe Armstrong for the suggestion.
2016-12-19Shorten the tail-recursion mythBjörn Gustavsson
The myth about tail recursion being faster than body recursion still seems to be alive, but we don't need to spend that much space discussing it as we needed earlier. Shorten the discussion and include a link to to Fred Hebert's excellent blog post.

2016-10-04Fix reference to automatic `undefined` field declared types.Doug Rohrer
In 8ce35b287fb50a6845fccf6a13c672aae303dc91 automatic insertion of `undefined` for record fields without initializers was removed, but this was not noted in the documentation. Add a warning about this change using similar verbiage as the original docs.

2016-09-19Use more correct delimiters for erl_nif.h includeTuncer Ayaz
Anywhere but the beam sources we shouldn't #include "erl_nif.h", because what "erl_nif.h" does is: (1) fail to find it outside of -I dirs, (2) then treat it as if it was written like <erl_nif.h>. Using <erl_nif.h> skips (1). More information can be found in 6.10.2 of the C standard. Because the examples use "erl_nif.h", NIF projects in the Erlang ecosystem copy this verbatim and make the same mistake.
