Actually not much. Its called lambdo because you can deploy functions to the cloud, but those functions can be written in a non functional style

- _delirium 11y agoThat's the case for most uses of "lambda" in programming languages too. It just means something like "anonymous function". I believe Lisp was the first language to introduce lambda as a keyword, and that's how it uses it: (lambda (x) ...) creates an anonymous function, but the body of the function doesn't have to be written in a functional style. In fact the modern concept of "functional style" didn't exist at the time.
