While testing my code, I got confused about Recomposition.
If I have a code like below, then what happens to value?

var value = false
SomeComposable { item -> // content block
  if(item) value = true
  // etc.
}

SomeComposable internally runs for loop. Will it run like normal for loop? Will content block recompose by itself, making value inconsistent?

yes, code with this shape has those problems and it's best to avoid using things like accumulator variables that are mutated by child composables

But I thought Composables should run just like normal functions. It would be too burdening to expect such a thing like this..
So, how can I workaround them? I cannot afford modifing SomeComposable.

don't mutate value during child composition, since child composition can both skip and restart
