Comprehensions - what does into %{} do?
Hey! I came across this in the book Elixir in Action and am wondering what the into %{} does here?
iex(6)> multiplication_table =
for x <- 1..9, y <- 1..9,
x <= y, ①
into: %{} do
{{x, y}, x*y}
end
iex(7)> multiplication_table[{6, 7}]
42
iex(8)> multiplication_table[{7, 6}]
nil

Oh I tried it out in the terminal and it makes sense now it puts all the results into a map.
%{
{4, 5} => 20,
{5, 9} => 45,
{1, 2} => 2,
{3, 6} => 18,
{2, 4} => 8,
{4, 8} => 32,
{1, 1} => 1,
{3, 7} => 21,
{8, 9} => 72,
{7, 9} => 63,
{2, 7} => 14,
{4, 6} => 24,
{5, 8} => 40,
{2, 8} => 16,
{1, 4} => 4,
{5, 6} => 30,
{6, 6} => 36,
{6, 8} => 48,
{1, 7} => 7,
{8, 8} => 64,
{2, 3} => 6,
{1, 8} => 8,
{3, 4} => 12,
{7, 8} => 56,
{4, 7} => 28,
{3, 3} => 9,
{4, 9} => 36,
{7, 7} => 49,
{1, 6} => 6,
