# Hints
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## General
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Make use of [anonymous functions][anon-fns].
|
||
|
|
- Use a [closure][closure] to reference the variable from the outer scope.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 1. Create an adder
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which adds the argument from the anonymous function to the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_add/1`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 2. Create a subtractor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which subtracts the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_subtract/1` from the argument from the anonymous function.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 3. Create a multiplier
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which multiplies the argument from the anonymous function to the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_multiply/1`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 4. Create a divider
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which divides the argument from the anonymous function by the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_divide/1`.
|
||
|
|
- Make use of [integer division][div].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 5. Create an "and"-er
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which performs a [bitwise _and_][bitwise-wiki] operation using the argument passed in to the anonymous function and the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_and/1`
|
||
|
|
- Functions in the [Bitwise module][bitwise-hexdocs] may be of use.
|
||
|
|
- If you are running Elixir version 1.9 or lower, you will need to call `require Bitwise` at the beginning of the module definition to be able to use the _Bitwise_ module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 6. Create an "xor"-er
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which performs a [bitwise _xor_][bitwise-wiki] operation using the argument passed in to the anonymous function and the argument passed in to `Secret.secret_xor/1`
|
||
|
|
- Functions in the [Bitwise module][bitwise-hexdocs] may be of use.
|
||
|
|
- If you are running Elixir version 1.9 or lower, you will need to call `require Bitwise` at the beginning of the module definition to be able to use the _Bitwise_ module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 7. Create a function combiner
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Return an anonymous function which [composes the functions][fn-composition] passed in to `Secret.secret_combine/2`.
|
||
|
|
- Use a `.` before `()` when calling an anonymous function.
