<p>
  When pattern matching on strings the <code>&lt;&gt;</code> operator can be
  used to match on strings with a specific prefix.
</p> 
<p>
  The pattern <code>"hello " <> name</code> matches any string that starts with
  <code>"hello "</code> and asigns the rest of the string to the variable
  <code>name</code>.
