Lambda calculus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematical logic and computer science, lambda calculus , also written as λ-calculus , is a formal system for function definition, function application and recursion. It was introduced by Alon...

l-calculus is a calculus which expresses “computation” via anonymous functions. l-calculus preceded LISP and LISP drew from it to some extent. l is the anonymous function in l-calculus, and lambda is the anonymous function in LISP.

Lambda Calculus provides the basis for Functional Programming languages. ... This is a brief introduction to the lambda calculus and the interpreter, including executable example λ-calculus programs and source code; it should be used in conjunction with a book or other material.

Lambda Calculus - two simple interpreters for the Lambda Calculus one strict, one lazy, with example programs that can be run via the web. ... There are lazy and strict versions of the toy lambda-calculus interpreter. They both share the same input syntax and can be used on the same example lambda-calculus programs,

We can use Lambda-calculus to describe such a function: ... Formal Lambda Calculus ... The Lambda-calculus is a universal model of computation, that is, any computation that can be expressed in a Turing machine can also be expressed in the lambda calculus.

Lambda calculus is a theory of functions that is central to (theoretical) computer science. It is well known that all recursive functions are representable as lambda terms: the representation is so compelling that definability in the calculus may as well be regarded as a definition of computability.

-Calculus (pronounced `lambda calculus') is a model of computation invented by Alonzo Church in 1934. It's analogous to Turing machines, but it's both simpler and more practical. Where the Turing machine is something like a model of assembly language, the -calculus is a model of function application.

-- Syntax of the λ-calculus -- ... The syntax of the λ-calculus is very simple, comprising just four kinds of expression but surprisingly it is sufficient to define any computable function. ... The pure λ calculus appears to lack recursion (or equivalently iteration) but recursive functions can in fact be defined,
