You mean you would expect it to do something like this?
Enum.map(keys, fn key ->
case Map.fetch(map, key) do
{:ok, value} -> {key, value}
_ -> nil
end
end)
Perhaps, but I think that the name take is not obviously indicating one or the other case, so I personally don’t think it’s a bad name. Maybe it could have been called Map.pick, just to differentiate it from Enum.take which takes a number of elements, but renaming it now would have much bigger disadvantages than advantages in my opinion.
