% Send a message: Pid ! Message
Pid ! {hello, self()}.
Pid ! ping.
Pid ! {compute, 1, 2, 3}.

% ! always returns the message itself, so you can broadcast:

% Send to a registered process (by atom name)
registered_name ! {request, Ref, self()}.

% Register / unregister a name for a PID
register(server, Pid).

    after 5000 ->
        {error, timeout}

% Problem: other messages stay in the mailbox, slowing future receives.
% For high-throughput servers use a selective receive library or
% gen_server (which keeps its mailbox clean).

% Non-selective (drain in order):
drain_all() ->
    receive
        Msg -> [Msg | drain_all()]

% link/1 links current process to another
Pid = spawn(fun() -> ... end),
link(Pid).

% If either dies, the other gets an exit signal.
% Default behavior: the linked partner also exits.

% spawn_link does both atomically:
Pid = spawn_link(fun() -> ... end).

% Trap exits to convert death signals into messages:
process_flag(trap_exit, true).
receive
    {'EXIT', From, Reason} -> io:format("~p died: ~p~n", [From, Reason])
end.

unlink(Pid).   % remove the link (best-effort)

% monitor/1: one-way — we observe Pid, but it doesn't observe us

% If Pid dies, we receive:
%   {'DOWN', Ref, process, Pid, Reason}

% Send an exit signal explicitly:

% Terminate the current process:
exit(Reason).            % Reason != normal kills linked partners

% exit/2 with the atom 'kill' is untrappable:
exit(Pid, kill).         % Pid dies even if it traps exits.
% (Only the kernel-supervised 'kill' reason cannot be trapped.)

% Reasons:
%   normal    -> linked partners do NOT die
%   shutdown  -> linked partners do NOT die (used in graceful stop)
%   {shutdown, Term} -> graceful with reason, also non-propagating
%   anything else -> linked partners also die (unless trapping)
