Toot

Ruby challenge! Can anyone find a way to get the names of the local variables defined within an arbitrary lambda without changing the lambda? Example lambda:

prk = ->{a=1, b=2}
[#] …
some_magic(prk) #=> [:a, :b]

My first thought was prk.binding.local_variables but Proc#binding returns the binding of the caller not the inner binding. And it's an arbitrary lambda so no variable shadowing ;-)

It's for a silly personal project not prod so I'm happy with weird metaprogramming!
