Keyword auto-imported

use

Source: compiler/src/builtin_docs/keywords.md

Imports items from a module, or lists the outer variables a lambda or defer captures.

use path::item;, use path::{a, b}; and use path::item as alias; bring names into scope; use path::* is rejected. The prelude is imported automatically. After a lambda’s parameters or after defer, use (x, y) names the outer locals the body may use.

use string::{format};
use io::sync::{println as say};

fn main() {
    let name = "coil";
    let greet = fn () use (name) => format("hello %s", name);
    let _ = say(greet());
}
