- I think that there should be a *distinguashable* syntax for
introducing/using
thunks with inline-suite scoping vs. 'class'-like scoping. I'm very very very uncomfortable with the idea of variable-geometry scoping, that means that I would have to go read some hairy code defining 'foo' in order to know:
def f(): x=3 foo: x=2
whether the second x= is modifying the local x to f, or is just local to foo suite.
So syntax-wise I personally would go for:
do iterate(lst): (x): print x
introducing a new-keyword 'do' (or something similar) and that would imply inline-suite-like scoping.
And
[KEYW-TO-ESTABLISH-OR-NOTHING] property foo: ...
[KEYW-TO-ESTABLISH-OR-NOTHING] interface.interface I(J,K): ...
implying 'class'-like scoping and not allowing the thunk maybe to take arguments or have break/continue/return(/value) in it.
