Options for accessing local variables

[Artur Biesiadowski]

Hello

One more missing -

Variables are copied on construction AND final inside lambda. They can 
be modified afterwards in calling scope.

 int[] total = new int[1];
 Utils.each(list, #(String str) { total[0] += str.length() });

I think it would be nice to extend the examples with modification of 
total in calling scope - it is not always clear if variables has to be 
effectively final or not.

Artur Biesiadowski
