Subject: Re: Confusion with block local variable declaration with block variable declaration within the pipe

because this variables are reseted back to nil, every time the block is 
run, and an "init" would not make sense

in you want something that survive longer than one iteration look at 
each_with_object / with_object or inject



and before you can ask: this parameters are NOT useless because they can 
shadow other local variables from outside the block without overriding 
them
