How much clarity is needed for beginners? #18

Should we assume Elixir is unlikely to be someone's first attempt beyond a simple understanding of the basics?

I'm wondering how much we need to add small notes to clarify things like for example what an enumerable is here:

Lists are enumerable, the Enum module provides lots of useful functions.

Or:

  • What an anonymous function is
  • The Elixir / syntax for named functions
  • What a macro is
