Ok: then how is the - at compile time unknown - state of a closure different from the state kept in an objekt? That you have to look for the the value outside the lexical context is part of the intended behaviour and noone who can write closure would be surprised or expect a different behaviour. I think your argument is a little bit trampling on a strawman. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems you are claiming FP would promise a much simpler behaviour, by deliberately misunderstanding FPs design principles. There is a clear difference between constructing closures and mutable variables, even if the behaviou of a function/closure is determined non-(source)-locally at runtime. If somebody exaggerated or misrepresented FP to you, thats not FPs problem, but yours, because you obviously seem to know better

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
