Elixir newbie here. I've been trying to convert KeywordList into a string. I can do so with <pre class="prettyprint"><code>IO.inspect([name: "John Doe"]) </code></pre> but it prints the string to console. Is there a function that just returns the string?

<pre class="prettyprint"><code>inspect([name: "John Doe"]) </code></pre> It is defined by the Kernel module and therefore automatically imported.

Equivalent of IO.inspect function that just returns string instead of printing given list, map or keyword list?
