So in elixir sometimes you need to do something like this:

def function(acc, condition1, condition2) do
  acc <> 
   cond do
     condition1 -> "hello"
     condition2 -> "world!"
     true -> "" # Add nothing to acc
   end
end

Sometimes you need to use an empty string. Currently i only see two options for that

1. using "" (empty string with two double qoutes)
2. using <<>> (empty binary)

It would be a good thing if Elixir’s String module would provide a function like: String.empty/0 that would return a human readable form of empty string in Elixir.

But for now, Which way you think is better to use? 1 or 2? Or any other solutions?

I personally think that 2 is better since no special chars can hide inside it!
