Description

Description

This is a placeholder issue for implementing closures as described in https://github.com/stan-dev/design-docs/blob/master/designs/0004-closures-fun-types.md

I say placeholder cause that's the main specification, and there will also be associated pull requests in stanc3.

Current Version:

v3.3.0

Research direction

Confirm the intended scope for the Stan Math repository and coordinate with that work; done means closures are implemented consistently with the design and the related stanc3 changes.
