Swift Language Functions Passing and returning functions
Example
The following function is returning another function as its result which can be later assigned to a variable and called:
func jediTrainer () -> ((String, Int) -> String) {
func train(name: String, times: Int) -> (String) {
return "\(name) has been trained in the Force \(times) times"
}
return train
}
let train = jediTrainer()
train("Obi Wan", 3)
