/**
 * Like the one in commons-collections but with generic support.
 * 
 *  Defines a functor interface implemented by classes that do something.
 * 

 * A Closure represents a block of code which is executed from inside some 
 * block, function or iteration. It operates an input object.
 * 

 * Es una excelente elecci?n para los metodos que retornan datos.
 * En vez de retornar una coleccion, pasarle como parametro un closure. 
 * Da mayor flexibilidad (si se quiere evitar se puede evitar
 * el uso de memoria que acarrea una colecci?n).
