    - However, the closure that is returned has "captured" the value represented by `$greeting` and can still access it later when the closure itself is called.

 1. You can also pass closures themselves into a pipeline assuming the next command knows how to consume it. For example, the `do` example can be rewritten as:
 
    ```nu
-   > {|a,b| $a + $b} | do $in 34 8
-   43
+   {|a,b| $a + $b} | do $in 34 8
+   # => 43
    ```
 
 1. As seen above, closures can be returned from a custom command. They can also be returned from another closure.
