I am also new to Scala. Not quite sure about the closure test Why we could not use below in Scala? I think it's quite similar to the 29 lines code

def addPlus10: Function1[Int, Int] = 10 + _ addPlus10(9)

@Josh Cough

That will be the next post. :-)

I can't believe you wasted so many lines in your Clojure version.

(((fn mk-adder [x] #(+ % x)) 10) 9)

only 35 characters and does roughly the same thing. :)

:) can you do it in reverse too?

@Gabriel Done! I will play around later with making the Scala version more monadic. Thanks for the tips!
