closure

UDF or closure object.

delimiters A list delimiter to be used. The default value is comma (,).
includeEmptyFields Boolean. Whether to allow empty fields. Default is false.

Also, the original array can also be passed to the closure function. So the following code is also valid:

    }
    ListEach(cityList ,printCity);
</cfscript>
