Hello, I regularly make the mistake described here https://groups.google.com/d/msg/julia-users/UyCSm5Shyww/Udt67boT3CsJ, i.e., i write
open(file) do fd a = read(fd, ...) b = read(fd, ...) end ## a and b undefined. I get that the solution is a, b = open(file) do fd ... Great. I understand that you would want `fd` to be local, is this the reason that every assignment is local? If `a, b = open() do ... end` is the recommended way of dealing with this, I wonder if this approach could generalize to the for-block comprehension = for i in collection ## compute element[i] element end as a multiline alternative to the [element for i in collection] syntax. Cheers, ---david
