My experience after solving this

I implemented a bit different approach, since the question is inside a chapter where every problem was solved by defining a higher order function.

So my solution looked something like this: [This is NOT the full and final solution]

function makeArmy() {
  let shooters = [];

  // I created  a generateShooter function
  function generateShooter(number) {
    return function () {
      console.log(number);
    };
  }

  while (i &lt; 10) {
    let shooter = generateShooter(i);
    shooters.push(shooter); // and add it to the array
    i++;
  }

  // ...and return the array of shooters
  return shooters;
}

let army = makeArmy();

// all shooters show 10 instead of their numbers 0, 1, 2, 3...
army[0](); // 0
army[1](); // 1
army[2](); // 2

The catch
