Key differences between Erlang and Java
Characteristic | Erlang | Java |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Erlang has a unique syntax that is based on Prolog and uses pattern matching extensively. | Java has a C-like syntax with curly braces and uses object-oriented programming concepts. |
Paradigm | Erlang is a concurrent, functional programming language. | Java is an object-oriented programming language. |
Typing | Erlang is dynamically typed. | Java is statically typed. |
Performance | Erlang is designed for high concurrency and fault-tolerance. | Java is known for its performance and scalability. |
Libraries and frameworks | Erlang has a smaller ecosystem of libraries and frameworks compared to Java. | Java has a vast ecosystem of libraries and frameworks. |
Community and support | Erlang has a smaller community compared to Java, but it has strong support from Ericsson. | Java has a large and active community with extensive support. |
Learning curve | Erlang has a steeper learning curve due to its unique syntax and functional programming concepts. | Java has a relatively moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with C-like languages. |
