Can you explain why, in Julia 1.0.3, this code gives error:
A = “”
for x in [1, 2, 3] if 1 == 1 A *= “…” end end
I tested in Julia 1.5, where it works as expected, but I want to work more with a stable version.
Tambet
New features are purposefully not added to 1.0. That’s why it is a more stable version. If you want a very stable release with all the new features, you should be using the released version (currently 1.5.3)

“The return of the scoping issue” 
See Unexpected scope issue and https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/28789 and a gazillion other threads here on discourse.
BTW, IMO this question doesn’t belong into “Internals & Design” but rather into “Usage” or similar.
