I have following simple test code to try how to send messages between process. The way I understand my code is : I spawn 2 separate processes Processes are executing functions where they should be awaiting a message In parent process I send a message to each process Processes should receive them …

You need to pass a function to spawn: ... hPID = spawn fn -> humanTurn(hValue, parent) end dPID = spawn fn -> dealerTurn(dValue, parent) end ... If you call spawn humanTurn(hValue, parent) you are executing the humanturn function before the “spawn” call, so it blocks in the first spawn

Thank you! I got a step further :slight_smile:
