  Generic utility functions for Elixir.

  @doc """
  Recursively replaces the value at the given path with the new value.
  Supports lists, maps, and nested lists and maps.

  ## Example
    ```elixir
    iex> replace_in(%{first_key: [%{second_key: 1}]}, [:first_key, 0, :second_key], 2)
    %{first_key: [%{second_key: 2}]}
    ```
    Or the value can be a function that takes the current value and returns the new value:

    ```elixir
    iex> replace_in([%{first_key: 2}], [0, :first_key], &Kernel.*(&1, 5))
    [%{first_key: 10}]
    ```
