if (typeof module === "undefined") {

  var module = { exports: null };

}

var myNamespace = module.exports = (function () {

    ...

—  

(function (global) {
  // Module code
  global.myThingy = ...
})(typeof module !== undefined
  ? module.exports
  : window)

— Oh hey haha, thank you

— I wound up doing something similar

— Hey i'm new here needed some help with thing

— So i have this datastructure

var list = { value: 0,
rest: { value: 1,
rest: null
}
};

— And i want to add new elements at end of this list

— Within rest?

— The innermost one?

— Yes within innermost rest

— I'm able to do that using mutability of list object

— But i was wondering whether there is a way to do the same if list was an immutable datastructure
