What error would be returned?
1 / 0
\*\*(ArithmeticError)
bad argument in arithmetic expression: 1 / 0
32
is\_binary(\<\<0, 1, 2\>\>)
=\> true
33
What type of error would be raised?
x \<\> " John" = "bear John"
ArgumentError
\*\*(ArgumentError) the left argument of \<\> operator inside a match should always be a literal binary as its size can't be verified.
got: x
34
Some functions are marked as
inlined by the compiler.
What does this mean?
Most of the inlined functions can be seen when capturing the function:
iex\> &Kernel.is\_atom/1
&:erlang.is\_atom/1
BIFs (built-in internal functions) in Erlang-land. Some of them are allowed in guards and others are used for compiler optimizations.
35
How can you tell Elixir not to import the **if/2** macro?
import Kernel, except: [if: 2]
36
is\_atom(Hello)
=\> true
37
What error would be raised?
"he" ++ "llo"
ArgumentError
\*Note: You can perform 'he' ++ 'llo' on codepoints,
but not on a String
38
[1] ++ [2 | 3]
=\> [1, 2 | 3]
39
[1] ++ 2
=\> [1 | 2]
\*returns improper list
40
[1, 2, 3, 2, 1] -- [1, 2, 2]
=\> [3, 1]
The complexity of a--b is proportional to length(a) \* length(b), meaning that it will be very slow if both a and b are long lists. In such cases, consider using MapSet.difference/2
41
1 == 1.0
=\> true
42
is\_binary("hello")
=\> true
43
'he' ++ 'llo'
=\> 'hello'
44
is\_boolean(nil)
=\> false

end

=\> ["Keith", "James"]
It is important to note that reading an attribute takes a snapshot of its current value.
In other words, the value is read at compilation time and not at runtime.
Try to avoid rebinding module attributes.

is\_boolean(1) &&
is\_float(1.2)

x

52
Which operation is preferable?
def inc([], acc), do: acc
def inc([h | t], acc), do: inc(t, acc ++ [h+1])
vs
def inc([], acc), do: Enum.reverse(acc)
def inc([h | t], acc), do: inc(t, [h + 1 | acc])
The complexity of a ++ b is proportional to length(a), so avoid repeatedly appending to lists of arbitrary length. Instead, consider prepending via [head | tail] and then reversing.
53
is\_boolean(false) &&
nil &&
is\_atom(:hello)
=\> nil
\*Note: returns first falsey value or the last value
54
is\_number(2.3) &&
is\_list(5) &&
is\_float(1.2)
=\> false
\*Note: returns first falsey value or true
