in reply to Re^4: A Real Closure (definition?)
in thread Unusual Closure Behaviour

    Find me a web page that contains a definiton for "closure" in terms of generic computer programming (best if it is not specific to just one programming language). I've looked for such a couple of times before and again recently and I haven't found anything even close.

Did you try FOLDOC?

I know I'm replying to an old node here, but the FOLDOC entry was put up in 1994.
