I often read about closures being one of those 'end all beat all' programming techniques reserved for the most sophisticated and advanced gurus out there. Naturally, I want to learn how to use them, and use them effectively - I know perl supports them! I know its a sort of functional programming concept, but I know it is useful in other ways as well (or so I hear!).
What are closures? How are they used? When should they be used? Where can I learn more about them? After reading this: http://www.perl.com/pub/2002/05/29/closure.html , and not really understanding the second example at all - I am really interested in knowing more. Links and explanations welcome of course. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
