An Introduction to Functional Programming Through Lambda Calculus Greg Michaelson
Publisher: Addison-Wesley




After doing my initial pass at Haskell, I was consumed with the curiosity to find out what drives “Functional Programming”, and the answer “Lambda Calculus”. We then look at the basic building blocks and the philosophy of the language, discussing concepts such as the lambda calculus, closures, currying, immutability, lazy evaluation, memoization, and the role of data types in functional languages. Types and Programming Languages; An Introduction to Functional Programming Through Lambda Calculus. I am working on design and implementation of a functional programming language with support for automatic differentiation. A Simply Typed Lambda-Calculus for Forward Automatic Differentiation. I am proud to announce that my first computer science paper has been accepted to MFPS XXVIII! In this post I would like to give a down-to-earth introduction to the subject of the paper and to explain the problem it is attempting to solve. Explain Lamda's in 140 characters or less?

Lambda Calculus - "An Introduction To Functional Programming Through Lambda Calculus" (WorldCat) by Greg Michaelson Importance: Lambda calculus is the basis of functional programming. An Introduction to Lambda Calculus. ;) I have a book "Introduction to Functional Programming with Lamda Calculus" on the pile of "books to read" but it's been there for 8 months ;).
