That Val site provides the following example, which makes no sense to me: public fun main() { let weight = 1.0 print(weight) // 1.0 let length = 2.0 print(length) // 1.0 } Is the behaviour of print "Just print whatever the first variable was forever" ? Is this example wrong ?

  That is almost certainly just a typo. That example is meant to help explain Val's lifetimes in the most basic possible way.

  I wondered the same. I also guess this is a typo.
