You probably mean to say Elixir is *sequential*. Imperative programming
definition focuses a lot on changing the program state, which is something
we minimize in Elixir. For example, using for-loops for mutating an array
is an imperative construct, in Elixir we would use Enum.map or recursion,
which are on the functional/declarative side.
