No it's not - you're thinking of:

  local function x() end

Without that "local", it's exactly the same as regular assignment.


Anyway, I think it might be an idea worth considering, especially if
it also came with the optional syntax:

  function :method()  return self.x  end

....to add the extra "self" parameter.
