Question: Patterns Matching seems misleading to me

[zsluedem]

just personal opinion. The Patterns matching seems misleading to me.

I agree, do you have an idea how else to present or explain it ?

Maybe something like that:

You can listen/peek a channel and at the same time pattern match only a given process structure

 for (@"hello" <- ch1; @("hello", "world!") <- ch2; @("hello", _) <- ch3) { ... }

You can also match processes directly

match P {
 "hello" => { ... }
 "world" => { ... }
 _ => { ... }
}```

This looks better to me.

I think the misleading point in the image is that
"Tries to match Process against each Pattern_t until it finds a match"
This sentence would give people wrong impression that the join consume would just iterate the channel with different pattern which is totally not the case.
