      With the exception of `Enum.each/2`, the result of a call to the
      Enum module's functions has to be used.

      While this is correct ...

          def prepend_my_username(my_username, usernames) do
            valid_usernames = Enum.reject(usernames, &is_nil/1)

            [my_username] ++ valid_usernames
          end

      ... we forgot to save the downcased username in this example:

          # This is bad because it does not modify the usernames variable!

          def prepend_my_username(my_username, usernames) do
            Enum.reject(usernames, &is_nil/1)

            [my_username] ++ valid_usernames
          end

      Since Elixir variables are immutable, Enum operations never work on the
      variable you pass in, but return a new variable which has to be used somehow
      (the exception being `Enum.each/2` which iterates a list and returns `:ok`).
