The Beauty of Pattern Matching in Elixir

The Beauty of Pattern Matching in Elixir (Screencast + Transcript)

Thank you for sharing this. You have a nice mix of “Let me show you in really concrete terms what is happening” and “Let me show you how you would actually use this”. Particularly for beginners, it is very helpful.
