Lambda-calculus, Combinators and Functional Programming Paperback / softback
by G. E. Revesz
Part of the Cambridge Tracts in Theoretical Computer Science series
Paperback / softback
Description
Originally published in 1988, this book presents an introduction to lambda-calculus and combinators without getting lost in the details of mathematical aspects of their theory.
Lambda-calculus is treated here as a functional language and its relevance to computer science is clearly demonstrated.
The main purpose of the book is to provide computer science students and researchers with a firm background in lambda-calculus and combinators and show the applicabillity of these theories to functional programming.
The presentation of the material is self-contained. It can be used as a primary text for a course on functional programming.
It can also be used as a supplementary text for courses on the structure and implementation of programming languages, theory of computing, or semantics of programming languages.
