This syntactic sugar is a pretty important aspect of Swift and often times some of our smallest closures will be pure. For example Array’s map should be pure when the closure is pure and many map closures are very small. We don’t want to have to annotate these closures with a signature. </span></div></span></blockquote></div><div class="bloop_markdown"><p></p></div></body></html>
