I'd like a way to do
local v
do v = 3 end
without assigning nil to v.
You can't have that in principle. No name can ever not be
associated to a value. If you don't do
local v=3
(why on earth don't you?) then Lua explicitly supplies the nil.
Otherwise that slot would contain whatever was in it before
(which may be a user's unencrypted password) and all sorts
of security holes open up.
The basic idea /is/ to do local v=3, but also run some code inbetween.
local v = (function() return 3 end)() lets you run code inbetween, but
"v" doesn't get assigned nil: it gets assigned whatever the function
returns.
