Overview

You're going to create a TodoList application with persistence using a file system.

Example Solution 
defmodule TodoList do
  @storage "todolist"

  def list do
    case File.read(@storage) do
      {:ok, list} -> :erlang.binary_to_term(list)
      # other operations will create the storage if it does not yet exist.
      _ -> []
    end
  end

  def add(item) do
    new_list = [item | list()]
    File.write(@storage, :erlang.term_to_binary(new_list))
  end

  def complete(item) do
    new_list = list() -- [item]
    File.write(@storage, :erlang.term_to_binary(new_list))
  end
end

Implement the TodoList module as documented. You may choose any file for your persistence mechanism.

defmodule TodoList do
  @moduledoc """
  Documentation for `TodoList`
  """
  @doc """
  Retrieve the todo list.

  ## Examples

      iex> TodoList.list()
      []
  """
  def list do
  end

  @doc """
  Add an item to the todo list.

  ## Examples

      TodoList.add("task 1")
      TodoList.add("task 2")
      TodoList.list()
      ["task 2", "task 1"]
  """
  def add(item) do
  end

  @doc """
  Complete (remove) an item from the todo list.

  ## Examples

      TodoList.add("finish homework")
      TodoList.complete("finish homework")
      TodoList.list()
      ["task 2", "task 1"]
  """
  def complete(item) do
  end
end
