</span>I think it's of questionable importance and doesn't generalize well.<br>
For example, you can't use this to construct something like<br>
<br>
var x: Int<br>
functionThatActsLikeIf( someTest(), then: { x = 1 }, else: { x = 2} )<br>
<br>
If you need to initialize something in an outer scope with something<br>
computed by a closure, it's much better to arrange something like this:<br>
<br>
var x = functionThatActsLikeIf( someTest(), then: { 1 }, else: { 2 } )<br>
