Warning in un used variable

[ariandanim]

heres my code

iex(46)> rt = 10
10
iex(47)> if true do
…(47)> rt = rt * 10
…(47)> end
warning: variable “rt” is unused (there is a variable with the same name in the context, use the pin operator (^) to match on it or prefix this variable with underscore if it is not meant to be used)
iex:48

100
iex(48)> rt = 10
10
iex(49)> if true do
…(49)> ^rt = rt * 10
…(49)> end
** (MatchError) no match of right hand side value: 100

iex(49)> rt = 10
10
iex(50)> if true do
…(50)> rt = ^rt * 10
…(50)> end
error: misplaced operator ^rt

I think what you are trying to do is this:

iex> rt = 10
10

iex> rt = if true do
...>  rt * 10
...> end
100

Take a look at case, cond, and if — Elixir v1.16.0-rc.0 > “This is also a good opportunity to talk about variable scoping in Elixir.”
