Lambda Papers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lambda the Ultimate Papers were written by Gerald Jay Sussman and Guy Steele Jr. in 1975-1978, questioning the then current practices in programming language implementations. The focus was on showing that programming languages can be implemented efficiently without constraining the programmers by arbitrary rules, and discussing implementation strategies for Scheme.
