What are some good Erlang Primers/Tutorials for beginners?

Question

What are some good links for diving into Erlang and functional programming in general?

Answer 1

Here's the first half of Concurrent Programming in Erlang [PDF], free.

Answer 2

I think the language itself is surprisingly easy to learn. I recommend http://www.erlang.org/download/getting_started-5.4.pdf

Answer 3

Let me suggest that Erlang is not necessarily typical of "functional programming in general". If you want a good balance, I'd combine reading some of the Erlang-specific sources already cited (or Joe Armstrong's book, Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World) with some of the tutorial links from the Haskell web site.
