Let's not go too far with the Scheme analogies, since we're not talking about Scheme. :) The idea is just like var-hoisting, only the hoisting goes to the top of the nearest block, not the nearest function. Just like var-hoisting, the initializer expressions are just assignments that happen exactly where you wrote them. So indeed, like letrec*, the initializers are evaluated in order from top to bottom. > It's not just the RI; the official proposal is very specific about let > semantics. This is a detail that we should stamp out, I agree. I'll look for a trac ticket and file one if there isn't one.
