Erlang中的模式匹配还会处理各个语句的执行流，以及从复合数据类型(元组、数组)中提取出值。

Pattern matching in Erlang also handles the execution flow of individual statements, and extracts the individual vales from compound data types (tuples, arrays).

与可以包含不同类型元素的列表、元组和词典不同的是，Numarray数组只能包含同一类型的数据。

In contrast to lists, tuples, and dictionaries, which may contain heterogeneous elements, Numarray arrays contain only elements of a homogeneous data type.

youdao

In fact it gives me back, now I hate this, it's actually a list it's not a tuple. But for now think of it as giving you back an explicit version of that representation of all those elements.

它实际上是一个数组而不是一个元组，但是现在你们可以把它认为,是明确的这些,元素的一个表示,你会在接下来的一些课程中看到。

I shouldn't say list, those two tuples, and walk through them to find the pieces that match up.

除数数组进行对比，我不该说数组的，是元组,遍历这两个元组找到相同的元素。
