Evaluate a sequence of expressions.
An EnclosedExpr is part of constructors for elements and
attributes and consists of a sequence of one or more expressions that is
enclosed by braces. The expressions are evaluated and the
EnclosedExpr is replaced with the result of the evaluation.
Reformat book entries:
for $a in input()/bib/book
let $authors :=
for $I in $a/author
return <author>{ $i/last/text() }, { $i/first/text() }</author>
return
<mybook published="{ $a/@year }">
{ $authors }
{ $a/title }
</mybook>
This example uses five enclosed expressions that are evaluated to three
different kinds of nodes: two text nodes that are used in the construction of
the local author elements bound to
$authors, an attribute node (year),
a single element node (title), and one or more
element nodes by evaluating $authors.
