Hi,
What have you put in your math1.erl file?
Did you forget the full stop ('.') at the end of the program?
Here is the program from the tutorial:
-module(math1).
-export([factorial/1]).
factorial(0) -> 1;
factorial(N) -> N * factorial(N-1).
^^^
This compiles fine, but if you forget the full stop at the end, like this:
-module(math1).
-export([factorial/1]).
factorial(0) -> 1;
factorial(N) -> N * factorial(N-1)
^^^
the compiler gives the "premature end" error.
Regards,
Dominic.
