Spot the bug! Why doesn't doSomething print "new function"
function MyObject(fun){
this.fun = fun;
}
MyObject.prototype.doSomething = function() {
this.fun();
};
var f = function (){console.log('Original function')};
var myObj = new MyObject(f)
f = function (){console.log('new function')}
myObj.doSomething();

anyway: it's not a bug :)
it's about closuring and javascript execution.
