## Bad record in Erlang
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reports an error when trying to access or update a record with the wrong name. Corresponds to the `{badrecord,Name}` error in the Erlang runtime.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, accessing `R` as a `person` record gives `{badrecord,person}` error because `R` is `rabbit` (even though both share the `name` field).
|
||
|
|
```erlang
|
||
|
|
-record(person, {name, phone}).
|
||
|
|
-record(rabbit, {name, color}).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
f() ->
|
||
|
|
R = #rabbit{name = "Bunny", color = "Brown"},
|
||
|
|
R#person.name
|
||
|
|
```
