  2. Lambda lifting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_lifting

    It has four parameters; The lambda expression being analyzed. The table parameter lists for names. The table of values for parameters. The returned parameter list, which is used internally by the; Abstraction - A lambda expression of the form (.) is analyzed to extract the names of parameters for the function.

  3. Anonymous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_function

    The names "lambda abstraction", "lambda function", and "lambda expression" refer to the notation of function abstraction in lambda calculus, where the usual function f (x) = M would be written (λx. M), and where M is an expression that uses x. Compare to the Python syntax of lambda x: M.

  4. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    Each iteration of the loop links a to a new object created by evaluating the lambda expression inside the loop. Each of these objects holds a reference to another lazy object, b, and has an eval method that calls b.eval() twice and returns the sum. The variable b is needed here to meet Java's requirement that variables referenced from within a ...

  5. Closure (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closure_(computer_programming)

    In this example, the lambda expression (lambda (book) (>= (book-sales book) threshold)) appears within the function best-selling-books. When the lambda expression is evaluated, Scheme creates a closure consisting of the code for the lambda expression and a reference to the threshold variable, which is a free variable inside the lambda expression.

  6. Anonymous recursion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymous_recursion

    Even without mechanisms to refer to the current function or calling function, anonymous recursion is possible in a language that allows functions as arguments.

  7. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    The Java syntax has been gradually extended in the course of numerous major JDK releases, and now supports abilities such as generic programming and anonymous functions (function literals, called lambda expressions in Java). Since 2017, a new JDK version is released twice a year, with each release improving the language incrementally.

  8. Immediately invoked function expression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediately_invoked...

    Immediately invoked function expressions may be written in a number of different ways. [3] A common convention is to enclose the function expression – and optionally its invocation operator – with the grouping operator, [4] in parentheses, to tell the parser explicitly to expect an expression.

  9. Free variables and bound variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_variables_and_bound...

    Variable binding relates three things: a variable v, a location a for that variable in an expression and a non-leaf node n of the form Q(v, P). Note: we define a location in an expression as a leaf node in the syntax tree. Variable binding occurs when that location is below the node n. In the lambda calculus, x is a bound variable in the term M
