Access.get_and_update
You're seeing just the function
get_and_update, go back to Access module for more information.
Specs
get_and_update( data, key(), (value() | nil -> {current_value, new_value :: value()} | :pop) ) :: {current_value, new_data :: data} when data: container(), current_value: var
Gets and updates the given key in a container (a map, a keyword list,
a struct that implements the Access behaviour).
The fun argument receives the value of key (or nil if key is not
present in container) and must return a two-element tuple {current_value, new_value}:
the "get" value current_value (the retrieved value, which can be operated on before
being returned) and the new value to be stored under key (new_value).
fun may also return :pop, which means the current value
should be removed from the container and returned.
The returned value is a two-element tuple with the "get" value returned by
fun and a new container with the updated value under key.
Examples
iex> Access.get_and_update([a: 1], :a, fn current_value ->
...> {current_value, current_value + 1}
...> end)
{1, [a: 2]}
