 <title>Appending to a Binary</title>
- Since Erlang R12B, the following function for creating a binary out of
- a list of triples of integers is efficient:
+ Appending to a binary in an efficient way can be done as follows:
 <code type="none"><![CDATA[
 triples_to_bin(T) ->
 triples_to_bin(T, <<>>).
 
 triples_to_bin([{X,Y,Z} | T], Acc) ->
- triples_to_bin(T, <<Acc/binary,X:32,Y:32,Z:32>>); % inefficient before R12B
+ triples_to_bin(T, <<Acc/binary,X:32,Y:32,Z:32>>);
 triples_to_bin([], Acc) -> 
 Acc.]]></code>
- In previous releases, this function was highly inefficient, because
- the binary constructed so far (<c>Acc</c>) was copied in each recursion step.
- That is no longer the case. For more information, see
