Hi,

I'm getting this strange syntax error with your library:

== Compilation error in file lib/markov.ex ==
** (SyntaxError) lib/markov.ex:47:44: syntax error before: '*'
    (elixir 1.12.3) lib/kernel/parallel_compiler.ex:319: anonymous fn/4 in Kernel.ParallelCompiler.spawn_workers/7

I'm using Elixir 1.12.3. Any ideas?

I think I may have answered my question... It looks like ** must have been added in elixir 1.13?

Might want to update the mix.exs to specify 1.13 though!

Got it, thanks!

Looks like this operator is actually pretty old. This article from Jan 1st 2021 talks about it, but Elixir v1.13 was only released in December 2021
