This make little sense. Which public behaviour are you talking about ?

a = 1
a = 2

I think you don’t really understand the concept of immutability. Immutability applies to values, not variables .

Yes I understand:

And we are discussing variables, thus they don’t fit in the definition of immutable, but every time this subjects of variables in Elixir not being immutable is brought to light by a newcomer, the community always change to the concept of the value stored in memory, that in fact is immutable, and I never said it wasn’t, but the variable it’s mutable.
