Hi, I'm currently learning Erlang, and I'm stuck on figuring out how to use the spawn instruction. I don't want any straight answers, I want to figure this out myself, but any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated:

Quote:

Create a spawn instruction. This instruction expects to find two things on the stack:

1. A list: this will be a list of values for the new process to use as its own stack.
2. A list: this will be a list of instructions for the new process to run.

The list of values should be the top value on the stack, and the list of instructions should be below it.

What exactly do you mean by an "instruction" and where is the quote from?

I wonder too, because that definitely does not relate to Erlang.
