# Hints
|
|
|
|
## General
|
|
|
|
- Read about the `Enum` module in the [official Getting Started guide][getting-started-enum] or on [elixirschool.com][elixir-school-enum].
|
|
- Take a look in the documentation for the full [list of functions in the `Enum` module][enum-functions].
|
|
|
|
## 1. Sort items by price
|
|
|
|
- There is a [built-in function][enum-sort-by] for sorting enumerables using a sorter function.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Find all items with missing prices
|
|
|
|
- There is a [built-in function][enum-filter] for filtering enumerables.
|
|
|
|
## 3. Update item names
|
|
|
|
- There is a [built-in function][enum-map] for transforming every element in an enumerable.
|
|
- There is a [built-in function][string-replace] that can replace all instances of one string with a different one.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Increment the item's quantity
|
|
|
|
- Maps implement the enumerable protocol.
|
|
- `Enum` functions convert maps to a list of `{key, value}` tuples.
|
|
- There are two different functions that can transform a list of `{key, value}` tuples back into a map using a transformation function. [One of them always returns a new map][map-new], while [the other lets you choose a collectible][enum-into].
|
|
|
|
## 5. Calculate the item's total quantity
|
|
|
|
- Maps implement the enumerable protocol.
|
|
- `Enum` functions convert maps to a list of `{key, value}` tuples.
|
|
- There is a [built-in function][enum-reduce] for reducing an enumerable to a single value.
