Keep in mind that there are two kinds of function here, one is "function" which is just like a C function pointer (cannot access variables in its containing lexical scope), the other is "delegate", which is a "fat" function pointer (has access to variables in containing scope). Furthermore, there's a distinction between the function pointers/delegates themselves vs. function literals (i.e., the syntax of writing (int x) => (x^^2)), which is probably what you mean by "anonymous functions" here.
