DESCRIPTION:Elixir and Erlang make tremendous tools for integrating betwe
 en different kinds of interfaces.  In fact there's arguably no better sy
 stem for quickly constructing reliable and fault-tolerant control planes
  available today.  However\, in order to do that in a rich ecosystem of 
 technologies it is a requirement that we be able to interact with and or
 chestrate various kinds of external processes.  So for this meetup sessi
 on we're going to learn about exactly how to do that.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nFor
  the newcomers\, the &quot\;Games&quot\; format is designed to create a 
 bit of friendly competition and is accessible for all ranges of experien
 ce\; beginners and pros alike. &#13\;\n&#13\;\nIf you'd like to take a l
 ook at the previous sessions' exercises feel free to check them out here
 : https://github.com/elixir-pdx/\, some submitted solutions are availabl
 e on non-master branches. &#13\;\n&#13\;\nEarly in this series we'll be 
 focusing mostly on solving problems in a functional paradigm\, and as th
 e series continues over time we'll move more and more toward Elixir's di
 fferentiators\; Erlang interop\, hygienic macros\, &amp\; OTP patterns. 
  &#13\;\n&#13\;\nIf all that read like gibberish to you\, don't worry yo
 u don't have to know any of that jargon\, and by the time you do everyth
 ing will already make sense.  Because we'll introduce ideas and concepts
  in a way that will help you understand those things conceptually before
  you ever need a weird name for them. &#13\;\n&#13\;\nFood and drinks wi
 ll be provided.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nPlease make sure you come with a computer
  to work on and have Elixir pre-installed locally or in a VM and ready t
 o go.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nhttp://elixir-lang.org/install.html &#13\;\n&#13\;\
