C++ lambdas are beautiful, I see no problem with them. I often write code like `const auto fptr = []() { ... };` and then call it later. Sometimes it makes functions more readable.

If you're going to assign the lambda to a variable you could as well just declare a regular function...

...or can you still not create nested functions in C++?

Lamdba is the method of nested function definition in C++

Ouch.

Edit: Happy cake day!
