[julia-users] Anon functions and closures, is this the expect behavior?

[Michael Francis]

function test()
  x = 2
  f = (()->x + 3)
  println( f() )      # Prints 5 Yeh!
  x = 4 
  println( f() )      # Prints 7 ??? 
  g = (()->(x=4))
  println( g() )     # Prints 4 Yeh, that should not be the same x
  println( x )       # Oops seems it is the same X 
  println( f() )      # Yes seems there is one X here 
end

test()

Prints - 


   - 
   
   5
   7
   4
   4
   7
   
   
Is this the expected behavior for closures? it is not what I expected. 

This is in both 0.3.4 and 0.4.0-dev+3135
