... The λ-calculus gives a convenient notation for describing functions built from these objects. We can incorporate them in the language by assuming there is a constant for each primitive value and each distinguished operation, and extending the definition of term accordingly. This allows us to write ...

Functional Programming
... In informal mathematics, when talking about a function, one normally gives it a name, e.g., “define f(x) = E[x] … then … f …” Similarly, most programming languages will only let you define functions if you are prepared to give them a name. This approach is rather inconsistent, as we are not treating ...
