 # Comprehensions
 
-In Elixir, it is common to loop over an Enumerable, often filtering out some results and mapping values into another list. Comprehensions are syntactic sugar for such constructs: they group those common tasks into the `for` special form.

-In the example above, `ExUnit` stores the value of `async: true` in a module attribute to change how the module is compiled. Tags also work as annotations and they can be supplied multiple times, thanks to Elixir's ability to [accumulate attribute](`Module.register_attribute/3`). Then you can use tags to setup and filter tests, such as avoiding executing Unix specific tests while running your test suite on Windows.

 With protocols, however, we are no longer stuck having to continuously modify the same module to support more and more data types. For example, we could spread the `defimpl` calls above over multiple files and Elixir will dispatch the execution to the appropriate implementation based on the data type. Functions defined in a protocol may have more than one input, but the **dispatching will always be based on the data type of the first input**.
 
-One of the most common protocols you may encounter is the `String.Chars` protocol: implementing its `to_string/1` function for your custom structs will tell the Elixir kernel how to represent them as strings. We will explore all built-in protocols later. For now, let's implement our own.

 ## Documentation != Code comments
 
-Elixir treats documentation and code comments as different concepts. Documentation is an explicit contract between you and users of your Application Programming Interface (API), be them third-party developers, co-workers, or your future self. Modules and functions must always be documented if they are part of your API.
+Elixir treats documentation and code comments as different concepts. Documentation is an explicit contract between you and users of your Application Programming Interface (API), be they third-party developers, co-workers, or your future self. Modules and functions must always be documented if they are part of your API.
 
 Code comments are aimed at developers reading the code. They are useful for marking improvements, leaving notes (for example, why you had to resort to a workaround due to a bug in a library), and so forth. They are tied to the source code: you can completely rewrite a function and remove all existing code comments, and it will continue to behave the same, with no change to either its behavior or its documentation.
