in reply to Help with the concept of closures.
Hi.
Thank you all very much. My assumptions on how a closure functioned were reasonably accurate. The advice I received from you (the responding monks) did, however, illuminate several ambiguous aspects. Most notably, the fact that an anonymous sub was returned after the first parameter was stored in a strictly lexical variable (e.g. it wouldn't be a closure if I had used 'local' in lieu of 'my').
