09  Closures

A closure is a small anonymous function that can capture variables from its surroundings. Return one from a function, then accept one as an argument -- the two shapes iterator chains are built from.

Step 1 / 2

Make make_adder return a closure that adds n to its argument.

Hints
  • Closure syntax: |x| x + n -- arguments between pipes, body after.
  • The closure outlives make_adder, so it must own n: write move |x| x + n.
